Notes on thermodynamics of Schwarzschild-like bumblebee black hole

In this work, we investigated the thermodynamics of Schwarzschild-like bumblebee black hole using Iyer-Wald covariant phase space formalism. With a non zero vacuum expectation value, the bumblebee field is responsible for spontaneously breaking the Lorentz symmetry. As the bumblebee field is non-minimally coupled to gravity, we showed that the thermodynamic variables will be different from the counterpart in Einstein gravity. Especially, by using Iyer-Wald formalism, we found that the black hole entropy also differs from the result obtained from Wald entropy formula. Like Horndeski gravity, this mismatch is due to the divergence of bumblebee one-form field at the horizon. After figuring out the thermodynamics, we also briefly discussed the evaporation behavior of Schwarzschild like bumblebee black hole. We found that although bumblebee field has no influence on the critical impact factor, it can influence the black hole evaporation time.
