Detectability and resolvability of quasinormal modes with space-based gravitational wave detectors

The detection of quasinormal modes during the ringdown phase is a crucial method for testing the no-hair theorem. In this paper, the detectabilities and resolvabilities of multiple quasinormal modes using space-based gravitational wave detectors have been analyzed. The results indicate that TianQin and LISA have the potential to detect and resolve a series of modes, including six fundamental modes, one overtone, and two nonlinear second-order modes. Furthermore, the analysis of systematic errors in the waveform suggests that even modes such as $(l,m,n)=(3,3,1)$ and (4, 3, 0), which are unlikely to be directly detected and resolved, need to be taken into account in the ringdown waveform templates.

Abstract

The detection of quasinormal modes during the ringdown phase is a crucial method for testing the no-hair theorem. In this paper, the detectabilities and resolvabilities of multiple quasinormal modes using space-based gravitational wave detectors have been analyzed. The results indicate that TianQin and LISA have the potential to detect and resolve a series of modes, including six fundamental modes, one overtone, and two nonlinear second-order modes. Furthermore, the analysis of systematic errors in the waveform suggests that even modes such as $(l,m,n)=(3,3,1)$ and (4, 3, 0), which are unlikely to be directly detected and resolved, need to be taken into account in the ringdown waveform templates.
