Existence of Reissner-Nordstrom type black holes in f(R) gravity

Abstract

We investigate the existence of Reissner-Nordström (RN) type black holes in f(R) gravity. Our emphasis is to derive, in the presence of electrostatic source, the necessary conditions which provide such static, spherically symmetric (SSS) black holes available in f(R) gravity. We also study the thermodynamics of the black hole solution.
