We calculate analytically the asymptotic form of quasi-normal modes of perturbations of arbitrary spin of a Schwarzschild black hole including first-order corrections. We use the Teukolsky equation which applies to both bosonic and fermionic modes. Remarkably, we arrive at explicit expressions which coincide with those derived using the Regge-Wheeler equation for integer spin. Our zeroth-order expressions agree with the results of WKB analysis. In the case of Dirac fermions, our results are in good agreement with numerical data.

    Quasinormal modes are eigenmodes of dissipative gravitational systems whose spectra encode near-equilibrium transport coefficients in dual quantum field theories and enable tests of general relativity through gravitat...
