Reply to "On the branching of quasinormal resonances of near-extremal Kerr black holes" by Shahar Hod

Aaron Zimmerman, Huan Yang, Fan Zhang +3

In a study of the quasinormal mode frequencies of nearly extremal black holes, we pointed out a bifurcation of the mode spectrum into modes with finite decay and modes with vanishi…

Plasma-wave generation in a dynamic spacetime

Huan Yang, Fan Zhang

We propose a new electromagnetic-emission mechanism in magnetized, force-free plasma, which is driven by the evolution of the underlying dynamic spacetime. In particular, the emiss…

Green Pea Galaxies Reveal Secrets of Ly Escape

Huan Yang, Sangeeta Malhotra, Max Gronke +5

We analyze archival Ly spectra of 12 "Green Pea" galaxies observed with the Hubble Space Telescope, model their Ly profiles with radiative transfer models, and explore the de…

Towards the Laboratory Search for Space-Time Dissipation

Huan Yang, Larry R. Price, Nicolas D. Smith +3

It has been speculated that gravity could be an emergent phenomenon, with classical general relativity as an effective, macroscopic theory, valid only for classical systems at larg…

Magnetosphere of a Kerr black hole immersed in magnetized plasma and its perturbative mode structure

Huan Yang, Fan Zhang, Luis Lehner

This work studies jet-like electromagnetic configurations surrounding a slowly-spinning black-hole immersed in a uniformly magnetized force-free plasma. In the first part of this w…

Coupled Oscillator Model for Nonlinear Gravitational Perturbations

Huan Yang, Fan Zhang, Stephen R. Green +1

Motivated by the gravity/fluid correspondence, we introduce a new method for characterizing nonlinear gravitational interactions. Namely we map the nonlinear perturbative form of t…
