A New Approach to Black Hole Quasinormal Modes: A Review of the Asymptotic Iteration Method

Table 2

QNMs to 6 signifcant figures for Schwarzschild de Sitter gravitational perturbations ( ) for and modes. We only present results for the AIM method, because the results are identical to those of the CFM after a given number of iterations (in this case 50 iterations for both methods). The modes can be compared with the results in [30] for .
