Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the motion of test particles around a black hole (BH) characterized by spontaneous Lorentz symmetry breaking, parameterized by α . We begin by outlining the theoretical framework underlying such BH geometries and subsequently analyze the corresponding dynamics of massive test particles. By applying the effective potential, we determine the exact conditions for circular trajectories and analyze the properties of the innermost stable circular orbits (ISCOs) parameters. In addition, the effective force acting on particles is studied, which gives further insight into orbital stability. Also, we are testing the BH shadow with M87* and Sgr A* under the influence of BH parameters.. Furthermore, we explore oscillatory phenomena associated with small perturbations around circular orbits, calculating the frequencies as measured by both local and distant observers, as well as the periastron precession. In this context, these results shed light on possible observational signatures of Lorentz-symmetry breaking in strong gravitational regimes and contribute to the understanding of modified BH physics.
