Absorption of electromagnetic and gravitational waves by Kerr black holes
Article history: Received 29 August 2017 Accepted 17 September 2017 Available online 25 September 2017 Editor: M. Trodden We calculate the absorption cross section for planar waves incident upon Kerr black holes, and present a unified picture for scalar, electromagnetic and gravitational waves. We highlight the spin-helicity effect that arises from a coupling between the rotation of the black h...
متن کاملGravitational shock waves for Schwarzschild and Kerr black holes.
The metrics of gravitational shock waves for a Schwarzschild black hole in ordinary coordinates and for a Kerr black hole in BoyerLindquist coordinates are derived. The Kerr metric is discussed for two cases: the case of a Kerr black hole moving parallel to the rotational axis, and moving perpendicular to the rotational axis. Then, two properties from the derived metrics are investigated: the s...
متن کاملSchwarzschild Black Holes and Propagation of Electromagnetic and Gravitational Waves. *
Disturbing of a spacetime geometry may result in the appearance of an oscillating and damped radiation the so-called quasinormal modes. Their periods of oscillations and damping coefficients carry unique information about the mass and the angular momentum, that would allow one to identify the source of the gravitational field. In this talk we present recent bounds on the diffused energy, applic...
متن کاملGravitational waves versus black holes
It is argued that, in order for the gravitational field to be propagated as a wave, it is necessary for it to satisfy a further set of field equations, in addition to those of Einstein and Hilbert, and these equations mean there is a preferred coordinate frame, called the Global Inertial Frame, giving rise to a unique metric . The implication is that a true gravitational field is not compatible...
متن کاملScattering and absorption of gravitational plane waves by rotating black holes
This is a study of the scattering and absorption of planar gravitational waves by a Kerr black hole in vacuum. We apply the partial wave method to compute cross sections for the special case of radiation incident along the rotation axis. A catalogue of numericallyaccurate cross sections is presented, for a range of incident wavelengths Mω ≤ 4 and rotation rates a ≤ 0.999M . Three effects are st...
