Abstract

The motion of gravitational axion-like particles (ALP) around a Kerr black hole is analyzed, paying attention to resonance and distribution of spectral radiation. We first discuss the computation of gR~μνρρσRμνρσ\sqrt{g}{\tilde R}_{\mu \nu \rho \rho \sigma}R^{\mu \nu \rho \sigma} and its implications with Pontryagin's theorem and a detailed analysis of Teukolsky's master equation is done. After carefully analyzing the Teukolsky master equation, we show that this system exhibits resonance when ωμ\omega \gtrsim \mu where μ\mu is the mass of the ALP. A skew-normal distribution can approximate the energy distribution, and we can calculate the mean lifetime of the resonance for black holes with masses between 100 to 1000 MM_{\odot}. This range corresponds to a duration between 10110^{-1}s and 104110^{41}s, the observation range used in LIGO data.
