On the Klein–Gordon oscillators in Eddington-inspired Born-Infeld gravity global monopole spacetime and a Wu–Yang magnetic monopole

Abstract

Abstract We consider Klein–Gordon (KG) particles in a global monopole (GM) spacetime within Eddington-inspired Born–Infeld gravity (EiBI-gravity) and in a Wu–Yang magnetic monopole (WYMM). We discuss a set of KG-oscillators in such spacetime settings. We propose a textbook power series expansion for the KG radial wave function that allows us to retrieve the exact energy levels for KG-oscillators in a GM spacetime and a WYMM without EiBI-gravity. We, moreover, report some conditionally exact, closed form, energy levels (through some parametric correlations) for KG-oscillators in a GM spacetime and a WYMM within EiBI-gravity, and for massless KG-oscillators in a GM spacetime and a WYMM within EiBI-gravity under the influence of a Coulomb plus linear Lorentz scalar potential. We report the effects of the Eddington parameter $$\kappa $$ κ , GM-parameter $$\alpha $$ α , WYMM strength $$\sigma $$ σ , KG-oscillators’ frequency $$\Omega $$ Ω , and the coupling parameters of the Coulomb plus linear Lorentz scalar potential, on the spectroscopic structure of the KG-oscillators at hand. Such effects are studied over a vast range of the radial quantum number $$n_r\ge 0$$ n r ≥ 0 and include energy levels clustering at $$\kappa>>1$$ κ > > 1 (i.e., extreme EiBI-gravity), and at $$|\sigma |>>1$$ | σ | > > 1 (i.e., extreme WYMM strength).
