Bill,
As the two holes collapses into one larger hole, the rotation energy
goes from being a two-body rotation into being a one-body rotation. The
one-body rotation does not have the same characteristic as a massive
body moving swiftly back and forward from our observation and thus
producing a gravity wave in our direction.
The decay is simply from the fact that less and less mass rotate around
each other out of "equilibrium". At the end the mass distribution will
be similar to that of a rotating start, just much much denser. The
chock-wave of the collapse should be one hell of a bang, somewhat more
than 140 dB... wonder if someone have analyzed the acoustical resonance
modes of a black hole, and Q-values... so don't expect a black hole
resonator anytime soon.
Cheers,
Magnus

IMHO, the decay seems backwards because we are watching the growth of
the event as the black holes approach each other, reaching a maximum at
collision.
Don't know why the signal drops off after the collision. May be because
gravity stops changing, or maybe because the resulting object left the
universe - well, not if mass and energy are conserved. Or did the wave
contain all of the radiated energy?

Hi Tom,
Thanks for posting this. I'm looking at the timelab plot, and the only
thing I can relate that to is a musical note played backward. IOW, the
decay seems backwards to me.
