Using the relativistic framework in the study of the propagation of linear perturbations in
ideal fluids, we obtain a strong anology with the results found in the Theory of General Relativity. In this context, according to Unruh [W. Unruh, Phys. Rev. Letters 46, 1351 (1981)], it is possible to mimic a spacetime with an effective metric in an ideal fluid, barotropic, irrotacional and perturbed by acoustic waves. These spacetimes are called acoustic spacetimes and satisfy the geometric and kinematic properties of a curved spacetimes. In this work, we study the quasinormal modes and the Regge poles for the so called canonical acoustic hole. In our study, we use an asymptotic expansion method proposed by Dolan e Ottewill [S. R. Dolan and A. C. Ottewill, Class. Quantum Gravity 26, 225003 (2009)] to compute, for arbitrary overtones n, the quasinormal frequencies and angular momentum of the Regge poles, as well as their correspondent wavefunctions. The quasinormal frequencies and quasinormal wavefunction are expanded in inverse powers of L = l + 1/2 , where l is the angular momentum, while the angular momentum and wavefunction of the Regge poles are expanded in inverse powers of the frequency of oscillation of the canonical acoustic hole. We validate our results against existing ones obtained using Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin (WKB) approximation, and we obtain excellent agreement in the limit of the eikonal approximation (l ≥ 2 e l > n).
