We consider here scalar and electromagnetic perturbations for the Vaidya metric in double-null coordinates. Such an approach allows one to go a step further in the analysis of quasinormal modes for time-dependent spacetimes. Some recent results are refined, and a new non-stationary behavior corresponding to some sort of inertia for quasinormal modes is identified. Our conclusions can enlighten some aspects of the wave scattering by black holes undergoing some mass accretion processes.

  1. Nonlinear Dynamics near the Threshold of Gravitational Collapse

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0

    Perturbation theory around flat space fails before black hole formation once peak luminosity exceeds ~10^-2 L_Planck; near criticality the spectrum flattens to 1/ω, matching the prediction from discrete self-similarity.

  2. Quasinormal Ringdown and Echoes in Accreting Exotic Compact Objects

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    Echoes from an accreting exotic compact object are progressively compressed and suppressed, then vanish when the event horizon overtakes the reflecting surface, after which the signal becomes ordinary black-hole ringdown.

  3. Quasinormal modes of black holes: from astrophysics to string theory

    gr-qc 2011-02 accept novelty 1.0

    This review surveys calculations and interpretations of quasinormal modes for black holes in astrophysics, higher dimensions, and holographic duals without presenting new results.
