The Highly Damped Quasinormal Modes of -dimensional Reissner-Nordstrom Black Holes in the Small Charge Limit
We analyze in detail the highly damped quasinormal modes of -dimensional
Reissner-Nordstrm black holes with small charge, paying
particular attention to the large but finite damping limit in which the
Schwarzschild results should be valid. In the infinite damping limit, we
confirm using different methods the results obtained previously in the
literature for higher dimensional Reissner-Nordstrm black holes.
Using a combination of analytic and numerical techniques we also calculate the
transition of the real part of the quasinormal mode frequency from the
Reissner-Nordstrm value for very large damping to the
Schwarzschild value of for intermediate damping. The real
frequency does not interpolate smoothly between the two values. Instead there
is a critical value of the damping at which the topology of the
Stokes/anti-Stokes lines change, and the real part of the quasinormal mode
frequency dips to zero.Comment: 18 pages, 8 figure
