Perturbations of charged black holes

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., D; (United States)
Wave equations are derived in the Newman--Penrose formalism for gravitational and electromagnetic perturbations produced by charged and uncharged matter moving in a Reissner--Nordstrom background geometry. A brief sketch is given to obtain similar sets of equations in the Kerr--Newman background. The wave equations in the Kerr--Newman background, however, do not seem to separate, at least for the variables and the coordinate system used here. (AIP)
