Description
Axion forms a cloud around a rotating black hole (BH) by superradiant instability. On the other hand, considering the cloud associated with a BH in a binary system, tidal interaction depletes the cloud in some cases during the inspiral phase. To clarify the condition that clouds avoid disappearing, we made the exhaustive study of cloud depletion numerically in a wide parameter range for equal mass binaries.
