Asymptotic quasinormal modes of string-theoretical d-dimensional black holes

Abstract We compute the quasinormal frequencies of d-dimensional spherically symmetric black holes with leading string α′ corrections for tensorial gravitational perturbations in the highly damped…

The asymptotic quasinormal modes of dilatonic black holes

We investigate highly damped quasinormal mode of dilatonic black holes motivated by its relation to loop quantum gravity. Using the WKB approximation, we show that the real part of the frequency…

Electromagnetic quasinormal modes of D-dimensional black holes

Using the monodromy method we calculate the asymptotic quasinormal frequencies of an electromagnetic field moving in D-dimensional Schwarzschild and Schwarzschild de Sitter black holes (D ≥  4). For…

The asymptotic quasinormal mode spectrum of non-rotating black holes

A conjectured connection to quantum gravity has led to a renewed interest in highly damped black-hole quasinormal modes (QNMs). In this paper we present simple derivations (based on the WKB…

Quasinormal modes of black holes and black branes

Quasinormal modes are eigenmodes of dissipative systems. Perturbations of classical gravitational backgrounds involving black holes or branes naturally lead to quasinormal modes. The analysis and…

Intermediate asymptotics of the Kerr quasinormal spectrum

We study analytically the quasinormal mode spectrum of near-extremal (rotating) Kerr black holes. We find an analytic expression for these black-hole resonances in terms of the black-hole physical…

Dirty black holes: quasinormal modes

In this paper, we investigate the asymptotic nature of the quasinormal modes for ‘dirty’ black holes—generic static and spherically symmetric spacetimes for which a central black hole is surrounded…

Stretched horizons, quasiparticles and quasinormal modes

We propose that stretched horizons can be described in terms of a gas of non-interacting quasiparticles. The quasiparticles are unstable, with a lifetime set by the imaginary part of the lowest…

Area spectrum of the d-dimensional Reissner–Nordström black hole in the small charge limit

A conjecture by Hod states that for the black hole horizon the spacing of its area spectrum is determined by the asymptotic value of its quasinormal frequencies. Recently to overcome some…

Dirty black holes: quasinormal modes

In this paper, we investigate the asymptotic nature of the quasinormal modes for 'dirty' black holes—generic static and spherically symmetric spacetimes for which a central black hole is surrounded…

Quasinormal modes, the area spectrum, and black hole entropy.

A result from classical gravity concerning the quasinormal mode spectrum of a black hole is used to fix the Immirzi parameter and the Bekenstein-Hawking expression of A/4l(2)(P) for the entropy of ablack hole is arrived at.

A Gravitational instability in higher dimensions

We explore a classical instability of spacetimes of dimension $Dg4.$ First, we consider static solutions: generalized black holes and brane world metrics. The dangerous mode is a tensor mode on an…
