WKB approximation for quasi-bound states and trapped modes

R. A. Konoplya, Z. Stuchlík, A. Zhidenko

We develop a largely automatic semi-analytic method for calculating weakly damped quasi-bound states and trapped modes supported by a local minimum of an effective potential. The r…

Perturbations of Charged Black Holes with Higher-Order Interactions

Oleksandr S. Stashko, Roman A. Konoplya, Mark P. Hertzberg

We study linear gravitational perturbations and the corresponding quasinormal-mode spectra of electrically and magnetically charged black holes in the presence of higher-order corr…

Quasinormal Modes and Hawking Radiation of Black Holes with Primary Scalar Hair

Roman Konoplya, Oleksandr Stashko, Zdeněk Stuchlík

Recently, a new family of asymptotically flat black-hole solutions endowed with primary scalar hair has been discovered in beyond-Horndeski gravity. We study in detail the quasinor…

Cesàro convergence of the high-order WKB method and its applications to black-hole overtones and long-lived modes

Roman A. Konoplya, Jerzy Matyjasek, Alexander Zhidenko

We develop a fully automatic Mathematica implementation of the black-hole WKB method at very high orders based on the Bender-Wu algorithm, which in principle is limited only by mem…

An efficient higher-order WKB code for quasinormal modes and greybody factors

Roman A. Konoplya, Jerzy Matyjasek, Alexander Zhidenko

The higher-order WKB Mathematica code for computing quasinormal modes, whose accuracy was significantly enhanced through extensions to higher orders and, in particular, through the…

Quasinormal modes of four-dimensional regular black holes in quasi-topological gravity: Overtones' outburst via WKB method

R. A. Konoplya

We study quasinormal modes of scalar, electromagnetic, and Dirac perturbations of four-dimensional regular black holes arising in non-polynomial quasi-topological gravity. Starting…
