We examine the possible characterization of ringdown waves in a dynamical Vaidya spacetime using the Penrose limit geometry around the dynamical photon sphere. In the case of a static spherically symmetric black hole spacetime, it is known…
We consider a wave equation with a potential on the half-line as a model problem for wave propagation close to an extremal horizon, or the asymptotically flat end of a black hole spacetime. We propose a definition of quasinormal frequencies…
Perturbations of stars and black holes have been one of the main topics of relativistic astrophysics for the last few decades. They are of particular importance today, because of their relevance to gravitational wave astronomy. In this…
Linear perturbations of spherically symmetric spacetimes in general relativity are described by radial wave equations, with potentials that depend on the spin of the perturbing field. In previous work we studied the quasinormal mode…
We compare four loop quantum gravity inspired black hole metrics near the Planck scale. Spin 0, 1/2, 1, and 2 field perturbations on these backgrounds are studied. The axial gravitational quasinormal modes are calculated and compared. The…
We analytically calculate to leading order the asymptotic form of quasinormal frequencies of Kerr black holes in four, five and seven dimensions. All the relevant quantities can be explicitly expressed in terms of elliptical integrals. In…
The resonant mode spectrum of the Kerr-Newman spacetime is presently unknown. These modes, called the quasinormal modes, play a central role in determining the stability of Kerr-Newman black holes and their response to perturbations. We…
Black hole solutions in general relativity are simple. The frequency spectrum of linear perturbations around these solutions (i.e., the quasinormal modes) is also simple, and therefore it is a prime target for fundamental tests of black…
The Penrose inequality estimates the lower bound of the mass of a black hole in terms of the area of its horizon. This bound is relatively loose for extremal or near extremal black holes. We propose a new Penrose-like inequality for static…
In previous work [1] we proposed an improvement of the WKB-based semianalytic technique of Iyer and Will for calculation of the quasiormal modes of black holes by constructing the Pad\'e approximants of the formal series for $\omega^{2}.$…
After black holes collide, the remnant settles to a stationary state by emitting gravitational waves. Once non-linearities subside, these ringdown waves are dominated by exponentially-damped sinusoids, or quasinormal modes. We develop a…
Black holes play a fundamental role in modern physics. They have characteristic oscillation modes, called quasinormal modes. Past studies have shown that these modes are important to our understanding of the dynamics of astrophysical black…
We consider here scalar and electromagnetic perturbations for the Vaidya metric in double-null coordinates. Such an approach allows one to go a step further in the analysis of quasinormal modes for time-dependent spacetimes. Some recent…
In the context of a gravity's rainbow, the asymptotic quasinormal modes of the scalar perturbation in the quantum modified Schwarzschild black holes are investigated. By using the monodromy method, we calculated and obtained the asymptotic…
In this paper, we investigate the asymptotic nature of the quasinormal modes for "dirty" black holes -- generic static and spherically symmetric spacetimes for which a central black hole is surrounded by arbitrary "matter" fields. We…
We investigate the parametrized black hole quasinormal ringdown formalism, which is a robust framework used to analyze quasinormal modes in systems that closely resemble general relativity, paying particular attention to the higher…
Quasinormal modes play a prominent role in relaxation of diverse physical systems to equilibria, ranging from astrophysical black holes to tiny droplets of quark-gluon plasma at RHIC and LHC accelerators. We propose that a novel kind of…
Asymptotically safe gravity is based on the idea that the main contribution to the Schwarzschild-like black hole spacetime is due to the value of the gravitational coupling which depends on the distance from the origin and approaches its…
We present an exact expression for the quasinormal modes of scalar, electromagnetic and gravitational perturbations of a near extremal Scwarzschild-de Sitter black hole and we show why a previous approximation holds exactly in this near…
We analytically investigate the quasinormal modes of the massive scalar field with a nonminimal coupling in the higher-dimensional de Sitter black hole with a single rotation. According to the separated scalar field equation, the boundary…
