Spectral instability of black holes: relating the frequency domain to the time domain

Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Yiqiu Yang, Zhan-Feng Mai, Run-Qiu Yang, Lijing Shao, Emanuele Berti | Summary: Recent work has shown that the quasinormal mode spectrum of black holes is unstable under small perturbations (of order $epsilon$) of the radial potential, while the early time-domain ringdown waveform is only marginally affected. In […]
