Nonlinear Effects In Black Hole Ringdown From Scattering Experiments I: spin and initial data dependence of quadratic mode coupling

Hengrui Zhu, Justin L. Ripley, Frans Pretorius +13

We investigate quadratic quasinormal mode coupling in black hole spacetime through numerical simulations of single perturbed black holes using both numerical relativity and second-…

Black Hole Spectroscopy for Precessing Binary Black Hole Coalescences

Hengrui Zhu, Harrison Siegel, Keefe Mitman +14

The spectroscopic study of black hole quasinormal modes in gravitational-wave ringdown observations is hindered by our ignorance of which modes should dominate astrophysical signal…
