Black holes in Einstein-aether theory: Quasinormal modes and time-domain evolution

Abstract

We propose accurate calculations of quasinormal modes of black holes in the Einstein-aether theory, which were previously considered in the literature, partially, with insufficient accuracy. We also show that the arbitrarily long-lived modes, quasiresonances, are allowed in the Einstein-aether theory as well and demonstrate that the asymptotic tails, unlike quasinormal frequencies, are indistinguishable from those in the Einstein theory.
