标题： Listening for Ringing Black Holes

摘要： 由双黑洞在旋近、并合和振荡阶段产生的引力辐射是第一代或第二代千米级干涉型引力波探测器的有希望被探测到的候选信号。 最后一个阶段，准正常振荡的波形已经被很好地理解。 我讨论了基于加州理工学院40米干涉仪数据的分析，探讨了探测黑洞准正常振荡的可行性。 显示英文摘要

摘要： The gravitational radiation produced by binary black holes during their inspiral, merger, and ringdown phases is a promising candidate for detection by the first or second generation of kilometer-scale interferometric gravitational wave antennas. Waveforms for the last phase, the quasinormal ringing, are well understood. I discuss the feasibility of detection of the quasinormal ringing of a black hole based on an analysis of the Caltech 40-meter interferometer data.
