Anisotropic Gravitational Collapse and Cosmic Jets
Donato Bini, Carmen Chicone, Bahram Mashhoon
Consider a dynamic general relativistic spacetime in which the proper infinitesimal interval along one spatial coordinate direction decreases monotonically with time, while the cor…
Gravitational spin-orbit coupling in binary systems, post-Minkowskian approximation and effective one-body theory
Donato Bini, Thibault Damour
A novel approach for extracting gauge-invariant information about spin-orbit coupling in gravitationally interacting binary systems is introduced. This approach is based on the "sc…
Hyperbolic scattering of spinning particles by a Kerr black hole
Donato Bini, Andrea Geralico, Justin Vines
We investigate the scattering of a spinning test particle by a Kerr black hole within the Mathisson-Papapetrou-Dixon model to linear order in spin. The particle's spin and orbital…
Position determination and strong field parallax effects for photon emitters in the Schwarzschild spacetime
Donato Bini, Andrea Geralico, Robert T. Jantzen
Position determination of photon emitters and associated strong field parallax effects are investigated using relativistic optics when the photon orbits are confined to the equator…
Gravitational scattering of two black holes at the fourth post-Newtonian approximation
Donato Bini, Thibault Damour
We compute the (center-of-mass frame) scattering angle of hyperboliclike encounters of two spinning black holes, at the fourth post-Newtonian approximation level for orbital ef…
Spin-orbit precession along eccentric orbits for extreme mass ratio black hole binaries and its effective-one-body transcription
Chris Kavanagh, Donato Bini, Thibault Damour +3
In this work we present an analytical gravitational self-force calculation of the spin-orbit precession along an eccentric orbit around a Schwarzschild black hole, following closel…
Deviation and precession effects in the field of a weak gravitational wave
Donato Bini, Andrea Geralico, Antonello Ortolan
Deviation and precession effects of a bunch of spinning particles in the field of a weak gravitational plane wave are studied according to the Mathisson-Papapetrou-Dixon (MPD) mode…
Gyroscope precession along general timelike geodesics in a Kerr black hole spacetime
Donato Bini, Andrea Geralico, Robert T. Jantzen
The precession angular velocity of a gyroscope moving along a general geodesic in the Kerr spacetime is analyzed using the geometric properties of the spacetime. Natural frames alo…
Relativistic Tidal Acceleration of Astrophysical Jets
Donato Bini, Carmen Chicone, Bahram Mashhoon
Within the framework of general relativity, we investigate the tidal acceleration of astrophysical jets relative to the central collapsed configuration ("Kerr source"). We neglect…
