Abstract

The spin-weighted spheroidal eigenvalues and eigenfunctions arise in the separation by variables of spin-field perturbations of Kerr black holes. We derive a large, real-frequency asymptotic expansion of the spin-weighted spheroidal eigenvalues and eigenfunctions to high order. This expansion corrects and extends existing results in the literature and we validate it via a numerical calculation.
