Quasi-Normal Modes of a Schwarzschild White Hole

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2009-09-24 v1

Abstract

We investigate perturbations of the Schwarzschild geometry using a linearization of the Einstein vacuum equations within a Bondi-Sachs, or null cone, formalism. We develop a numerical method to calculate the quasi-normal modes, and present results for the case =2\ell=2. The values obtained are different to those of a Schwarzschild black hole, and we interpret them as quasi-normal modes of a Schwarzschild white hole.
