Slowly decaying tails of massive scalar fields in spherically symmetric spacetimes

abstract
We study the dominant late-time behaviors of massive scalar fields in static and spherically symmetric spacetimes. Considering the field evolution in the far zone where the gravitational field is weak, we show under which conditions the massive field oscillates with an amplitude that decays slowly as $t^{-5/6}$ at very late times, as previously found in (say) the Schwarzschild case. Our conclusion is that this long-lived oscillating tail is generally observed at timelike infinity in black hole spacetimes, while it may not be able to survive if the central object is a normal star. We also discuss that such a remarkable backscattering effect is absent for the field near the null cone at larger spatial distances.

Quasinormal modes of massive scalars in CFM brane-world black holes split into two types, with modes disappearing at critical masses where real or imaginary frequency parts reach zero.
Nonlinear tails of massive scalar fields around black holes decay at the same rate as linear tails during intermediate times, independent of sources or initial conditions.
Increasing the mass of a scalar field around a parity-symmetric beyond-Horndeski black hole strongly reduces the damping rate of quasinormal modes while suppressing low-frequency absorption and shifting efficient absorption to higher frequencies.
Massive scalar quasinormal modes in quasi-topological black holes become long-lived as scalar mass grows, while photon-sphere radius, shadow size, and ISCO exhibit moderate deviations from Schwarzschild.
Positive tidal charge in this brane-world black hole lowers the effective potential barrier, pushes massive scalar quasinormal modes toward arbitrarily long lifetimes, and increases transmission and absorption.
Increasing the mass of a perturbing scalar field around Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton black holes strongly suppresses damping in several quasinormal branches, producing quasi-resonant long-lived oscillations.
Increasing zero-point length makes photon and ISCO orbits more compact in ADM units while heavier scalars raise oscillation frequency and suppress damping on this regular self-energy black hole.
Massive scalar perturbations of de Sitter black holes in generalized Proca theory enter a large-mass regime with linearly growing real frequencies and constant damping rates, without true quasi-resonances, plus an analytic formula and shifts due to black-hole size and Proca hair.
Massive scalar perturbations on the Dymnikova regular black hole exhibit growing oscillation frequencies, reduced damping rates leading to quasi-resonances, power-law oscillatory tails, and mass-dependent suppression of grey-body factors.
Massive scalar quasinormal modes in this DBI-supported regular black hole show higher oscillation frequencies and lower damping as field mass increases, with larger regularity scales producing softer and longer-lived ringing.
