Cylindrical gravitational waves: C-energy, super-energy and associated dynamical effects
Donato Bini, Andrea Geralico, Wolfango Plastino
The energy content of cylindrical gravitational wave spacetimes is analyzed by considering two local descriptions of energy associated with the gravitational field, namely those ba…
Nonlinear-in-spin effects in effective-one-body waveform models of spin-aligned, inspiralling, neutron star binaries
Alessandro Nagar, Francesco Messina, Piero Rettegno +5
Spinning neutron stars acquire a quadrupole moment due to their own rotation. This quadratic-in-spin, self-spin effect depends on the equation of state (EOS) and affects the orbita…
On the energy content of electromagnetic and gravitational plane waves through super-energy tensors
Donato Bini, Andrea Geralico
The energy content of (exact) electromagnetic and gravitational plane waves is studied in terms of super-energy tensors (the Bel, Bel-Robinson and the --less familiar-- Chevreton t…
Gravitational self-force corrections to gyroscope precession along circular orbits in the Kerr spacetime
Donato Bini, Thibault Damour, Andrea Geralico +2
We generalize to Kerr spacetime previous gravitational self-force results on gyroscope precession along circular orbits in the Schwarzschild spacetime. In particular we present hig…
Hyperbolic-like elastic scattering of spinning particles by a Schwarzschild black hole
Donato Bini, Andrea Geralico
The scattering of spinning test particles by a Schwarzschild black hole is studied. The motion is described according to the Mathisson-Papapetrou-Dixon model for extended bodies in…
Relative-observer definition of the Simon tensor
Donato Bini, Andrea Geralico
The definition of Simon tensor, originally given only in the Kerr spacetime and associated with the static family of observers, is generalized to any spacetime and to any possible…
Schwarzschild black hole embedded in a dust field: scattering of particles and drag force effects
Donato Bini, Andrea Geralico
A "temporal analogue" of the standard Poynting-Robertson effect is analyzed as induced by a dust of particles (instead of a gas of photons) surrounding a Schwarzschild black hole.…
Scattering by a Schwarzschild black hole of particles undergoing drag force effects
Donato Bini, Andrea Geralico
The scattering of massive particles by a Schwarzschild black hole also undergoing a drag force is considered. The latter is modeled as a viscous force acting on the orbital plane,…
Black hole geodesic parallel transport and the Marck recipe for isolating cumulative precession effects
Donato Bini, Andrea Geralico, Robert T. Jantzen
The Wigner rotations arising from the combination of boosts along two different directions are rederived from a relative boost point of view and applied to gyroscope spin precessio…
Twisted Gravitational Waves of Petrov Type D
Kjell Rosquist, Donato Bini, Bahram Mashhoon
Twisted gravitational waves (TGWs) are nonplanar unidirectional Ricci-flat solutions of general relativity. Thus far only TGWs of Petrov type \emph{II} are implicitly known that de…
Gravitational self-force corrections to tidal invariants for particles on circular orbits in a Kerr spacetime
Donato Bini, Andrea Geralico
We generalize to the Kerr spacetime existing self-force results on tidal invariants for particles moving along circular orbits around a Schwarzschild black hole. We obtain linear-i…
Tidal invariants along the world line of an extended body in the Kerr spacetime
Donato Bini, Andrea Geralico
An extended body orbiting a compact object undergoes tidal deformations by the background gravitational field. Tidal invariants built up with the Riemann tensor and their derivativ…
Gravitational self-force corrections to tidal invariants for particles on eccentric orbits in a Schwarzschild spacetime
Donato Bini, Andrea Geralico
We study tidal effects induced by a particle moving along a slightly eccentric equatorial orbits in a Schwarzschild spacetime within the gravitational self-force framework. We comp…

Donato Bini, Andrea Geralico
We compute gravitational self-force corrections to tidal invariants for spinning particles moving along circular orbits in a Schwarzschild spacetime. In particular, we consider the…
High-energy hyperbolic scattering by neutron stars and black holes
Donato Bini, Andrea Geralico
We investigate the hyperbolic scattering of test particles, spinning test particles and particles with spin-induced quadrupolar structure by a Kerr black hole in the ultrarelativis…
Gravitational spin-orbit coupling in binary systems at the second post-Minkowskian approximation
Donato Bini, Thibault Damour
We compute the rotations, during a scattering encounter, of the spins of two gravitationally interacting particles at second-order in the gravitational constant (second post-Minkow…
On the local isometric embedding of trapped surfaces into three-dimensional Riemannian manifolds
Donato Bini, Giampiero Esposito
We study trapped surfaces from the point of view of local isometric embedding into three-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. When a two-surface is embedded into three-dimensional Euc…
Spinning Particles in Twisted Gravitational Wave Spacetimes
Donato Bini, Carmen Chicone, Bahram Mashhoon +1
Twisted gravitational waves (TGWs) are nonplanar waves with twisted rays that move along a fixed direction in space. We study further the physical characteristics of a recent class…
Detweiler's redshift invariant for spinning particles along circular orbits on a Schwarzschild background
Donato Bini, Thibault Damour, Andrea Geralico +1
We study the metric perturbations induced by a classical spinning particle moving along a circular orbit on a Schwarzschild background, limiting the analysis to effects which are f…
Spin-orbit precession along eccentric orbits: improving the knowledge of self-force corrections and of their effective-one-body counterparts
Donato Bini, Thibault Damour, Andrea Geralico
The (first-order) gravitational self-force correction to the spin-orbit precession of a spinning compact body along a slightly eccentric orbit around a Schwarzschild black hole is…
Twisted Gravitational Waves
Donato Bini, Carmen Chicone, Bahram Mashhoon
In general relativity (GR), linearized gravitational waves propagating in empty Minkowski spacetime along a fixed spatial direction have the property that the wave front is the Euc…
