A numerical study of the quasinormal mode excitation of Kerr black holes
Ernst Nils Dorband, Emanuele Berti, Peter Diener +2
We present numerical results from three-dimensional evolutions of scalar perturbations of Kerr black holes. Our simulations make use of a high-order accurate multi-block code which…
Eccentricity content of binary black hole initial data
Emanuele Berti, Sai Iyer, Clifford M. Will
Using a post-Newtonian diagnostic tool developed by Mora and Will, we examine numerically generated quasiequilibrium initial data sets that have been used in recently successful nu…
Supermassive black holes or boson stars? Hair counting with gravitational wave detectors
Emanuele Berti, Vitor Cardoso
The evidence for supermassive Kerr black holes in galactic centers is strong and growing, but only the detection of gravitational waves will convincingly rule out other possibiliti…
Quasinormal ringing of Kerr black holes: The excitation factors
Emanuele Berti, Vitor Cardoso
Distorted black holes radiate gravitational waves. In the so-called ringdown phase radiation is emitted in a discrete set of complex quasinormal frequencies, whose values depend on…
Considerations on the excitation of black hole quasinormal modes
Emanuele Berti, Vitor Cardoso, Clifford M. Will
We provide some considerations on the excitation of black hole quasinormal modes (QNMs) in different physical scenarios. Considering a simple model in which a stream of particles a…
