Linear perturbations of spherically symmetric spacetimes in general relativity are described by radial wave equations, with potentials that depend on the spin of the perturbing field. In previous work we studied the quasinormal mode spectrum of spacetimes for which the radial potentials are slightly modified from their general relativistic form, writing generic small modifications as a power-series expansion in the radial coordinate. We assumed that the perturbations in the quasinormal frequencies are linear in some perturbative parameter, and that there is no coupling between the perturbation equations. In general, matter fields and modifications to the gravitational field equations lead to coupled wave equations. Here we extend our previous analysis in two important ways: we study second-order corrections in the perturbative parameter, and we address the more complex (and realistic) case of coupled wave equations. We highlight the special nature of coupling-induced corrections when two of the wave equations have degenerate spectra, and we provide a ready-to-use recipe to compute quasinormal modes. We illustrate the power of our parametrization by applying it to various examples, including dynamical Chern-Simons gravity, Horndeski gravity and an effective field theory-inspired model.
Black hole solutions in general relativity are simple. The frequency spectrum of linear perturbations around these solutions (i.e., the quasinormal modes) is also simple, and therefore it is a prime target for fundamental tests of black hole spacetim
The parametrized black hole quasinormal ringdown formalism is useful to compute quasinormal mode (QNM) frequencies if a master equation for the gravitational perturbation around a black hole has a small deviation from the Regge-Wheeler or Zerilli equ
Deep conceptual problems associated with classical black holes can be addressed in string theory by the fuzzball paradigm, which provides a microscopic description of a black hole in terms of a thermodynamically large number of regular, horizonless,
Black-hole spectroscopy is arguably the most promising tool to test gravity in extreme regimes and to probe the ultimate nature of black holes with unparalleled precision. These tests are currently limited by the lack of a ringdown parametrization th
The ultralight boson is a promising candidate for dark matter. These bosons may form long-lived bosonic clouds surrounding rotating black holes via superradiance, acting as sources of gravity and affecting the propagation of gravitational waves aroun
