Quasinormal mode analysis in BEC acoustic black holes
نویسندگان
چکیده
We perform a quasinormal mode analysis of black-hole configurations in Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs). In this analysis we use the full Bogoliubov dispersion relation, not just the hydrodynamic or geometric approximation. We restrict our attention to one-dimensional flows in BECs with steplike discontinuities. For this case we show that in the hydrodynamic approximation quasinormal modes do not exist. The full dispersion relation, however, allows the existence of quasinormal modes. Remarkably, the spectrum of these modes is not discrete but continuous.

Quasinormal modes for Weyl neutrino field in R-N black holes
We employ WKB approximation up to the third order to determine the low-lying quasinormal modes for Weyl neutrino field in R-N black holes, which are the most relevant to the evolution of the field around a black hole in the intermediate stage. It is showed that the quasinormal mode frequencies for Weyl neutrino field in R-N black holes are different from those in Schwartzchild black holes ownin...
متن کاملPerturbative Calculation of Quasinormal Modes of d–Dimensional Black Holes
We study analytically quasinormal modes in a wide variety of black hole spacetimes, including d–dimensional asymptotically flat spacetimes and non-asymptotically flat spacetimes (particular attention has been paid to the four dimensional case). We extend the analytical calculation to include first-order corrections to analytical expressions for quasinormal mode frequencies by making use of a mo...
متن کاملQuasinormal-mode spectrum of Kerr black holes and its geometric interpretation
There is a well-known, intuitive geometric correspondence between high-frequency quasinormal modes of Schwarzschild black holes and null geodesics that reside on the light ring (often called spherical photon orbits): the real part of the mode’s frequency relates to the geodesic’s orbital frequency, and the imaginary part of the frequency corresponds to the Lyapunov exponent of the orbit. For sl...
متن کاملQuasinormal modes of nearly extremal Kerr spacetimes: spectrum bifurcation and power-law ringdown
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 types of quasinormal mode frequencies presented in a recent paper [1]. One set of modes, that we call “zerodamping modes”, has vanishing imaginary part in the extremal limit, and exists for all corotating perturbation...
متن کاملAbout the Signiicance of Quasinormal Modes of Black Holes
Quasinormal modes have played a prominent role in the discussion of perturbations of black holes, and the question arises whether they are as signiicant as normal modes are for self adjoint systems, such as harmonic oscillators. They can be signiicant in two ways: Individual modes may dominate the time evolution of some perturbation, and a whole set of them could be used to completely describe ...
