Bounds on the mass of superradiantly unstable scalar fields around Kerr black holes
arxiv(2024)
摘要
In this work we compute numerical bounds on the mass μ of superradiantly
unstable scalar fields in a Kerr black hole background using the continued
fraction method. We show that the normalized upper bound on the mass μ
increases with the angular momentum number ℓ and the azimuthal number m,
approaching the most stringent analytical bound known to date when ℓ=m ≫
1. We also provide an analytical fit to the numerically determined mass bound
as a function of the dimensionless spin parameter a/M of the black hole with
an accuracy of the order 0.1% for the fundamental mode with ℓ=m=1, and
of the order 1% for higher-order modes (up to ℓ=m=20). We argue that
this analytical fit is particularly useful in astrophysical scenarios, since
the lowest ℓ=m modes are capable of producing the strongest observable
imprints of superradiance.
