Gravitational Radiation from a Kerr Black Hole. I. Formulation and a Method for Numerical Analysis

Abstract

A class of new inhomogeneous equations governing gravitational perturbations of the Kerr geometry is presented. It is shown that, contrary to the case of the Teukolsky equation, the perturbation equations have short-range potential and no divergent source terms for large distance. Using one of such equations which seems to be the simplest, we have computed the spectrum and the energy of gravitational radiation induced by a test particle of mass µ falling along the z-axis into a Kerr black hole of mass M(≫µ) and angular momentum Ma(a < M). It is found that the total energy radiated is 0.0170µc2 (µ/M) when a = 0.99M, which is 1.65 times larger than that when a = 0, i.e., the Schwarzschild case.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
