We compute characteristic (quasinormal) frequencies corresponding to decay of a massive charged scalar field in a Reissner-Nordstrom black hole background. It proves that, contrary to the behavior at very late times, at the stage of quasinormal ringing the neutral perturbations will damp slower than the charged ones. In the limit of the extremal black hole the damping rate of charged and neutral perturbations coincides. Possible connection of this with the critical collapse in a massive scalar electrodynamics is discussed.

    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.

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