Numerical relativity analysis shows the direct wave frequency in binary black hole mergers correlates with horizon frequency only incidentally at χ_f ≈ 0.7 and has evolving damping time, making it unsuitable as a probe of remnant horizon properties or for testing Hawking's area law.

Fits to numerical relativity data indicate that leading-order post-Newtonian dependence on mass ratio persists in several modes of binary black hole mergers through the merger, while low-degree polynomials capture deviations in higher modes.

The Direct Wave is Not a Meaningful Test of Horizon Properties
Numerical relativity analysis shows the direct wave frequency in binary black hole mergers correlates with horizon frequency only incidentally at χ_f ≈ 0.7 and has evolving damping time, making it unsuitable as a probe of remnant horizon properties or for testing Hawking's area law.

Persistence of post-Newtonian amplitude structure in binary black hole mergers
Fits to numerical relativity data indicate that leading-order post-Newtonian dependence on mass ratio persists in several modes of binary black hole mergers through the merger, while low-degree polynomials capture deviations in higher modes.
