Black holes in massive gravity: Quasi-normal modes of scalar perturbations

Understand

We have studied quasinormal modes of scalar perturbations of a black hole in massive gravity.

• The parameters of the theory, such as the mass of the black hole, the scalar charge of the black hole and the spherical harmonic index is varied to see how the corresponding quasinormal frequencies change.
• We have also studied the massive scalar field perturbations.
• Most of the work is done using WKB approach while sections are devoted to compute quasinormal modes via the unstable null geodesics approach and the Poschl-Teller approximation.
