The geometry of lunar gravitational wave detection
Jacopo Tissino, Filippo Santoliquido, Francesco Iacovelli +9
The Lunar Gravitational Wave Antenna (LGWA) is a planned gravitational wave detector on the Moon, targeting the deci-Hertz band and expected to deliver breakthrough discoveries acr…

Quasinormal ringing of Kerr black holes. III. Excitation coefficients for equatorial inspirals from the innermost stable circular orbit
Matteo Della Rocca, Laura Pezzella, Emanuele Berti +2
The remnant of a black hole binary merger settles into a stationary configuration by "ringing down" through the emission of gravitational waves that consist of a superposition of d…

Quasinormal modes of black holes embedded in halos of matter
Laura Pezzella, Kyriakos Destounis, Andrea Maselli +1
We investigate the (axial) quasinormal modes of black holes embedded in generic matter profiles. Our results reveal that the axial QNMs experience a redshift when the black hole is…
