Kavli Affiliate: Xian Chen| Summary: In linear perturbation theory for Kerr black holes, there are two equivalent formalisms, namely the Teukolsky and the Sasaki-Nakamura (SN) formalism. Typically, one defaults to the Teukolsky formalism, especially when calculating extreme mass ratio inspiral waveforms, and uses the SN formalism when dealing with extended sources, as it offers superior […]
