Effective Potential for Even-Parity Regge-Wheeler Gravitational Perturbation Equations
Abstract
The Schrödinger-type equation for odd-parity perturbations on a background geometry has been extended to the even-parity perturbations. This should greatly simplify the analysis for calculations of gravitational radiation from stars and from objects falling into black holes.
