The scalar Green function of the Kerr spacetime
Huan Yang, Fan Zhang, Aaron Zimmerman +1
In this paper we study the scalar Green function in the Kerr spacetime using WKB methods. The Green function can be expressed by Fourier-transforming to its frequency-domain counte…
Quasinormal modes of nearly extremal Kerr spacetimes: spectrum bifurcation and power-law ringdown
Huan Yang, Aaron Zimmerman, Anıl Zenginoğlu +3
We provide an in-depth investigation of quasinormal-mode oscillations of Kerr black holes with nearly extremal angular momenta. We first discuss in greater detail the two distinct…
Quantum Limits of Interferometer Topologies for Gravitational Radiation Detection
Haixing Miao, Huan Yang, Rana X Adhikari +1
In order to expand the astrophysical reach of gravitational wave detectors, several interferometer topologies have been proposed to evade the thermodynamic and quantum mechanical l…
UM 625 Revisited: Multiwavelength Study of A Seyfert 1 Galaxy with a Low-mass Black Hole
Ning Jiang, Luis C. Ho, Xiao-bo Dong +2
UM 625, previously identified as a narrow-line active galactic nucleus (AGN), actually exhibits broad \ha\ and \hb\ lines whose width and luminosity indicate a low black hole mass…
