Internal Documentation

The oscillation modes of black holes, called quasinormal modes, are fundamental quantities in gravitational-wave astronomy, no-hair tests of General Relativity and even in a gauge-gravity duality context. Here you can find useful material for research, including comprehensive data for the quasinormal mode spectrum of Kerr black holes, and powerful yet simple routines to compute them. The data and routines are freely available, but we would appreciate if you reference the original work.
