虽然源自黑洞事件视界的信号无法到达未来类光无穷远，但关于视界及其紧邻区域的信息可编码在向增长/形成中的视界下落的物质或场扰动所发射的波的渐近性质中。在响应滤波框架内，“直达波”指的是通过对黑洞响应进行滤波所揭示的、对源敏感的 plunge（ plunge 此处指黑洞并合时物质向中心下落的过程）及残余天体形成信息。与具有固定复频率的稳态阻尼正弦波不同，直达波随演化的源变化，其瞬时复频率随时间演化，在后期与残余视界角速度Ω_H和表面引力κ_H相关。我们利用有理滤波器从数值相对论波形中移除准正则模，以研究该演化过程。在数值污染出现前，轨迹依赖于残余自旋：对于低自旋（χ_f≲0.7），实频率从上方趋近于2Ω_H；对于高自旋（χ_f≳0.7），实频率从下方趋近于2Ω_H；而瞬时衰减率则向~2κ_H增大，在某些高自旋情况下甚至超过该值。与粒子 plunge 的结果类似，受视界控制的值仅在后期才会趋近，因为参考系拖曳控制着视界附近的运动。对于非进动、质量相当的双黑洞并合形成的χ_f~0.7的残余天体，早期实频率接近2Ω_H，因为双黑洞轨道频率平滑过渡到残余视界频率。因此，有限时间偏差携带了并合/坍缩动力学的信息，而非破坏视界关联。完整的直达波演化需要数值相对论校准。我们进一步表明，克尔响应中的近似零极点配对可启发一种自旋依赖的最小滤波器集，该滤波器集可抑制准正则模特征，同时揭示源轨迹信息。
英文摘要
While no signal originating at a black hole's event horizon can reach future null infinity, information about the horizon and its immediate vicinity can be encoded in asymptotic properties of waves emitted by matter or field perturbations falling toward a growing/forming horizon. Within a response-filtered framework, "direct wave" denotes source-sensitive plunge and remnant-formation information revealed by filtering the black-hole response. Unlike a stationary damped sinusoid with a fixed complex frequency, the direct wave follows the evolving source and has an evolving instantaneous complex frequency tied at late times to the remnant horizon angular velocity $Ω_H$ and surface gravity $κ_H$. Using rational filters, we remove quasinormal modes from numerical-relativity waveforms to study this evolution. Before numerical contamination, trajectories depend on remnant spin: the real frequency evolves toward $2Ω_H$ from above for lower spins ($χ_f\lesssim0.7$) and from below for higher spins ($χ_f\gtrsim0.7$), while the instantaneous decay rate increases, with best-resolved cases approaching the expected value of $3κ_H$. As in particle-plunge results, the horizon-controlled value is approached only at late times, as frame dragging controls near-horizon motion. For $χ_f\sim0.7$ remnants of non-precessing, comparable-mass binaries, the early-time real frequency is close to $2Ω_H$ because the binary orbital frequency transitions smoothly to the remnant horizon frequency. Finite-time deviations therefore carry information about merger/collapse dynamics rather than undermining the horizon connection. Full direct-wave evolution requires numerical-relativity calibration. We further show that approximate pole-zero pairing in the Kerr response motivates a minimal filter set that suppresses quasinormal-mode features while revealing source-trajectory information.
