Phys. Rev. D 69, 024016 (2004) [5 pages]Teukolsky evolution of particle orbits around Kerr black holes in the time domain: Elliptic and inclined orbitsReceived 22 September 2003; published 30 January 2004 We extend the treatment of the problem of the gravitational waves produced by a particle of negligible mass orbiting a Kerr black hole using black hole perturbation theory in the time domain to elliptic and inclined orbits. We model the particle by smearing the singularities in the source term using narrow Gaussian distributions. We compare results (energy and angular momentum fluxes) for such orbits with those computed using the frequency domain formalism. © 2004 The American Physical Society URL:
