Scientific paper

The perturbation results of Cunningham, Moncrief, and Price (1978, 1979) are used to estimate the recoil velocities of newly formed black holes due to gravitational radiation reaction. The mixing of odd-parity quadrupole and octopole waves is primarily considered, and recoil velocities on the order of 25 km/s are obtained for the slightly nonspherical models of collapse considered by Cunningham, Moncrief, and Price. A qualitative discussion is presented of how larger velocities might be attained in more highly nonspherical collapse and results are compared with the quasi-Newtonian estimates of Bekenstein (1973).
