Thermodynamic analysis of black holes with cloud of strings and quintessence via Barrow entropy by Usman Zafar, Kazuharu Bamba, Tabinda Rasheed, Krishnakanta Bhattacharya

“…We explore a Reissner-Nordström Anti-de Sitter (RN-AdS) black hole with a cloud of string and quintessence to study thermodynamics and thermodynamic topology in the presence of Barrow entropy, which is currently being used widely as the horizon of a black hole may not be a smooth surface as described in classical general relativity but instead could have a more intricate fractal-like structure. Here, we study the impact of the fractal correction parameter of Barrow entropy on the thermodynamics of such BHs. …”
