Perturbative effects of spinning black holes with applications to recoil velocities

arXiv:1011.2767 · doi:10.1088/0264-9381/28/13/134005

Abstract

Recently, we proposed an enhancement of the Regge-Wheeler-Zerilli formalism for first-order perturbations about a Schwarzschild background that includes first-order corrections due to the background black-hole spin. Using this formalism, we investigate gravitational wave recoil effects from a spinning black-hole binary system analytically. This allows us to better understand the origin of the large recoils observed in full numerical simulation of spinning black hole binaries.
