Princeton University Gravity Initiative Spring Seminar Series
Black Hole Perturbation Theory: Love Numbers and Nonlinear Ring-Down
Abstract: We will discuss two recent developments in black hole perturbation theory:
(1) the symmetries behind the well-known vanishing of the tidal Love numbers, and
(2) second order quasi-normal modes during the ring-down phase after a binary merger.
