Abstract

One of the most important and actual issues in relativistic astrophysics is testing gravity theories and obtaining constraint values for the parameters of black holes using observational data. In this research, we aimed to explore the optical features of a Kerr--Newman black hole model in the presence of a quintessential field, which may be a candidate for a dark-energy model with a nonzero cosmological constant. First, we obtain the equations of motion for photons using the Hamilton--Jacobi formalism. We also study the horizons and shapes of the apparent regions of the photon region around the said black hole. In various scenarios, we investigate shadows cast by the black hole using celestial coordinates. Furthermore, we analyze the effects of the quintessential field and black hole charge on the shadow radius and distortion. Furthermore, we look into the constraints on the spin and charge of supermassive black holes M87$^*$ and Sagittarius A$^*$ for different values of the quintessential field using their shadow size measured by the Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration. Finally, we study the effects of the quintessential field, black hole spin and charge on its energy emission rate by Hawking radiation and compare our results with those of the available literature.
