abstract

We compute numerically the quasinormal modes of Kerr-Newman black holes in the scalar case, for which the perturbation equations are separable. Then we study different approximations to decouple electromagnetic and gravitational perturbations of the Kerr-Newman metric, computing the corresponding quasinormal modes. Our results suggest that the Teukolsky-like equation derived by Dudley and Finley gives a good approximation to the dynamics of a rotating charged black hole for Q<M/2. Though insufficient to deal with Kerr-Newman based models of elementary particles, the Dudley-Finley equation should be adequate for astrophysical applications.

Topological charge and black hole photon spheres in massive gravity

gr-qc · 2025-09-04 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

In dRGT massive gravity, static spherically symmetric black holes exhibit zero, one, or two photon spheres whose topological charges and stability patterns differ from Einstein gravity and from horizonless compact objects.

Ringdown waves from hairy black holes

gr-qc · 2026-03-16 · conditional · novelty 6.0

Ringdown frequency and damping shifts of Schwarzschild/Kerr black holes are expressed through the density and anisotropic pressures of the surrounding matter, giving a perturbative map from hairy-black-hole models to quasinormal-mode deviations.

Quasinormal modes of black holes and black branes

gr-qc · 2009-05-19 · unverdicted · novelty 2.0

Quasinormal modes are eigenmodes of dissipative gravitational systems whose spectra encode near-equilibrium transport coefficients in dual quantum field theories and enable tests of general relativity through gravitational wave observations.
