Abstract: | We have computed the energy ΔE, the momentum ΔP and the angular momentum ΔJ of gravitational radiation induced by a particle of mass μ and of zero orbital angular momentum plunging in the θ = π/2 plane into a Kerr black hole of mass M(?μ) and angular momentum Ma. It is found that ΔE for a = 0.99M is 4.45 × 10-2 (μ2/M)c2, which is 4.27 times larger than that for the a = 0 case. |
