Small mass plunging into a Kerr black hole: Anatomy of the inspiral-merger-ringdown waveforms
We numerically solve the Teukolsky equation in the time domain to obtain the gravitational-wave emission of a small mass inspiraling and plunging into the equatorial plane of a Kerr black hole. We account for the dissipation of orbital energy using the Teukolsky frequency-domain gravitational-wave f...
