Kerr black hole shadows cast by extraordinary light rays with Weyl corrections

We investigate the equation of motion for photons with Weyl corrections in a Kerr black hole spacetime in a small coupling case.Our results show that Weyl corrections yield phenomena of birefringence.The light rays propagating in the spacetime are sepa-rated into the ordinary rays and the extraordinary rays,and the propagation of the latter depends on the corrections.We probe the effects of Weyl corrections on the Kerr black hole shadows casted by the extraordinary rays and find that such corrections result in a weak stretching or squeezing in the vertical direction for the black hole shadows.Finally,we also study the change of the length of the Near-Horizon Extremal Kerr line(NHEK line)with Weyl corrections.These features could help us to understand the electrodynamics with Weyl corrections from black hole shadows.
