The Effective Field Theory (EFT) of perturbations on an arbitrary background geometry with a timelike scalar profile was recently constructed in the context of scalar-tensor theories. In this paper, we use this EFT to study quasinormal frequencies of odd-parity perturbations on a static and spherically symmetric black hole background. Keeping a set of operators that can accommodate shift-symmetric quadratic higher-order scalar-tensor theories, we demonstrate the computation for two examples of hairy black holes, of which one is the stealth Schwarzschild solution and the other is the Hayward metric accompanied by a non-trivial scalar field. We emphasize that this is the first phenomenological application of the EFT, opening a new possibility to test general relativity and modified gravity theories in the strong gravity regime.

    gr-qc 2025-03 accept novelty 7.0

    Requiring stealth Schwarzschild and de Sitter solutions in quadratic/cubic scalar-tensor theories eliminates odd-parity deviations from GR when all solutions are required, while allowing some deviations and non-trivia...

  4. Radial Perturbations of Black Holes in DHOST Theories

    gr-qc 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Radial perturbations of black holes with primary hair in DHOST theories are rewritten as a flat radial wave equation whose positive self-adjoint extension guarantees stability of the monopole mode.

  5. A cosmology-to-ringdown EFT consistency map for scalar-tensor gravity

    gr-qc 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    An EFT consistency map transports cosmology-conditioned posteriors from scalar-tensor FLRW backgrounds to black-hole quasinormal-mode kernels, showing tensor-speed effects fall below ringdown detectability while other...

  6. Tidal Love numbers for regular black holes

    gr-qc 2025-12 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Tidal Love numbers of regular black holes are generically nonzero, model-dependent, and can acquire logarithmic scale dependence at higher perturbative orders.

  7. Bardeen spacetime as quantum corrected black hole: Grey-body factors and quasinormal modes of gravitational perturbations

    gr-qc 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Increasing the quantum-correction scale in Bardeen spacetime raises quasinormal frequencies, slows decay, suppresses low-frequency transmission, and reorganizes absorption cross-sections.

  8. Scalar, electromagnetic, and Dirac perturbations of regular black holes constituting primordial dark matter

    gr-qc 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Larger DBI regularity scale in an asymptotically flat regular black hole shifts quasinormal frequencies and damping rates downward with only weak change in quality factor, above numerical uncertainty.

    gr-qc 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Renormalized dynamical tidal response functions for non-rotating black holes in GR carry inevitable ambiguities from renormalization scheme and flow initial condition, yielding scheme-dependent dynamical tidal Love nu...

  10. Wave and particle probes of a regular T-duality-inspired black hole with gravitational self-energy

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0

    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.

  11. Hawking Radiation from the Dymnikova Regular Black Hole

    gr-qc 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Numerical greybody factors for the Dymnikova black hole show temperature-driven luminosity suppression near the extremal remnant, with increasing fermion dominance in the residual massless flux.

    gr-qc 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    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.

    Larger DBI regularity in this regular black hole model reduces quasinormal frequencies and damping rates for scalar, electromagnetic, and Dirac perturbations while the quality factor stays nearly constant, producing a...
