Theoretical Aspects of Direct Waves in Kerr Black Holes: Pole-Splitting Method for Ringdown Analysis

Nao Nakamoto, Naritaka Oshita, Hiroki Takeda

We formulate the theoretical aspects of direct waves (DWs) in the case of extreme-mass merger. A DW is a source-driven waveform characterized by a complex frequency , wh…

Detectability of avoided crossings in black hole ringdowns

Hayato Imafuku, Naritaka Oshita, Hiroki Takeda

Quasinormal modes (QNMs) of black holes can exhibit avoided crossings (ACs), in which specific QNM frequencies approach each other while their amplitudes are enhanced and acquire n…
