Shadow and gravitational weak lensing for quantum improved charged black hole in plasma

We investigated the shadow and weak gravitational lensing for the quantum-improved charged black hole (BH). First, the photon motion and BH shadow were studied in a plasma medium. It can be seen from our analysis that the radius of the photon sphere of the quantum-improved charged BH and size of the BH shadow decrease under the influence of the plasma parameter . Furthermore, the gravitational weak lensing is considered for the quantum-improved charged BH, and we have obtained the deflection angle of light rays around a compact object for uniform and non-uniform plasma cases. It is shown that the value of the deflection angle for uniform plasma increases with increasing plasma parameter, and vice versa for non-uniform plasma. It has been also indicated that under the influence of the plasma parameter and BH charge , the values of the deflection angles for the two cases decrease. Finally, we investigated the magnification of image brightness using the deflection angle of the light rays around the quantum-improved charged BH.
