kerrgeopy.frequencies.fundamental_frequencies(a, p, e, x)[source]#

Computes frequencies of orbital motion in Boyer-Lindquist time

Parameters:
  • a (double) – dimensionless spin of the black hole (must satisfy -1 < a < 1)

  • p (double) – orbital semi-latus rectum

  • e (double) – orbital eccentricity (must satisfy 0 <= e < 1)

  • x (double) – cosine of the orbital inclination (must satisfy 0 < x^2 <= 1)

Returns:

tuple of the form \((\Omega_r, \Omega_\theta, \Omega_\phi)\)

Return type:

tuple
