Abstract

In this paper we have studied a black hole in de Sitter space which has a conformally coupled scalar field in the background. This black hole is also known as the black hole. We have obtained exact values for the quasi normal mode frequencies under massless scalar field perturbations. We have demonstrated that when the black hole is near-extremal, that the wave equation for the massless scalar field simplifies to a Schrdinger type equation with the well known Pshler-Teller potential. We have also used 6th order WKB approximation to compute quasinormal mode frequencies to compare with exact values obtained via the Pshler-Tell method for comparison. As an application, we have obtained the area spectrum using modified Hods approach and show that it is equally spaced.
