Phase Transition of Charged-AdS Black Holes and Quasinormal Modes : a Time Domain Analysis

In this work we use the quasinormal mode of a massless scalar perturbation to probe the phase transition of the charged-AdS black hole in time profile. The signature of the critical behavior of this black hole solution is detected in the isobaric process. This paper is a natural extension of [1, 2] to the time domain analysis. More precisely, our study shows a clear signal in term of the damping rate and the oscillation frequencies of the scalar field perturbation. We conclude that the quasinormal modes can be an efficient tool to detect the signature of thermodynamic phase transition in the isobaric process far from the critical temperature, but fail to disclose this signature at the critical temperature
