Detecting massive scalar fields with Extreme Mass-Ratio Inspirals

Susanna Barsanti, Andrea Maselli, Thomas P. Sotiriou +1

We study the imprint of light scalar fields on gravitational waves from extreme mass ratio inspirals -- binary systems with a very large mass asymmetry. We first show that, to lead…

Improved detection statistics for non Gaussian gravitational wave stochastic backgrounds

Matteo Ballelli, Riccardo Buscicchio, Barbara Patricelli +2

In a recent paper we described a novel approach to the detection and parameter estimation of a non-Gaussian stochastic background of gravitational waves. In this work we propose an…

Effective two-body approach to the hierarchical three-body problem: quadrupole to 1PN

Adrien Kuntz, Francesco Serra, Enrico Trincherini

Many binary systems of interest for gravitational-wave astronomy are orbited by a third distant body, which can considerably alter their relativistic dynamics. Precision computatio…

An analytic approach to quasinormal modes for coupled linear systems

Lam Hui, Alessandro Podo, Luca Santoni +1

Quasinormal modes describe the ringdown of compact objects deformed by small perturbations. In generic theories of gravity that extend General Relativity, the linearized dynamics o…

Black hole superradiance with (dark) matter accretion

Lam Hui, Y. T. Albert Law, Luca Santoni +3

Studies of black hole superradiance often focus on the growth of a cloud in isolation, accompanied by the spin-down of the black hole. In this paper, we consider the additional eff…

Quasi-normal modes of rotating black holes in Einstein-dilaton Gauss-Bonnet gravity: the second order in rotation

Lorenzo Pierini, Leonardo Gualtieri

One of the most promising strategies to test gravity in the strong-field, large curvature regime is gravitational spectroscopy: the measurement of black hole quasi-normal modes fro…

Local solutions of General Relativity in the presence of the Trace Anomaly

Marco Calzá, Alessandro Casalino, Lorenzo Sebastiani

Local solutions are a vivid and long-living topic in gravitational physics. We consider exact static pseudo-spherically symmetric solutions of semi-classical Einstein's equations i…

Extreme mass-ratio inspirals as probes of scalar fields: eccentric equatorial orbits around Kerr black holes

Susanna Barsanti, Nicola Franchini, Leonardo Gualtieri +2

We study binary systems in which a stellar mass compact object spirals into a massive black hole, known as extreme mass ratio inspirals, in scenarios with a new fundamental scalar…
