Excitation of Kerr quasinormal modes in extreme-mass-ratio inspirals
If a small compact object orbits a black hole, it is known that it can excite the black hole's quasinormal modes (QNMs), leading to high-frequency oscillations (“wiggles”) in the radiated field at J^{+}, and in the radiation-reaction self-force acting on the object after its orbit passes throug...
