New self-force method via elliptic partial differential equations for Kerr inspiral models
Thomas Osburn, Nami Nishimura
We present a new method designed to avoid numerical challenges that have impeded calculation of the Lorenz gauge self-force acting on a compact object inspiraling into a Kerr black…
Highly eccentric EMRI waveforms via fast self-forced inspirals
Jonathan McCart, Thomas Osburn, Justin Y. J. Burton
We present new developments and comparisons of competing inspiral and waveform models for highly eccentric non-spinning extreme and intermediate mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs and IMR…
Reissner-Nordström perturbation framework with gravitational wave applications
Justin Y. J. Burton, Thomas Osburn
We present a new convenient framework for modeling Reissner-Nordström black hole perturbations from charged distributions of matter. Using this framework, we quantify how gravitati…
Repeated faint quasinormal bursts in extreme-mass-ratio inspiral waveforms: Evidence from frequency-domain scalar self-force calculations on generic Kerr orbits
Zachary Nasipak, Thomas Osburn, Charles R. Evans
We report development of a code to calculate the scalar self-force on a scalar-charged particle moving on generic bound orbits in the Kerr spacetime. The scalar self-force model al…
Frame-dragging induced asymmetry in the bending of light near a Kerr black hole
S. V. Iyer
The deflection of light's trajectory has been studied in many different spacetime geometries in weak and strong gravity, including the special cases of spherically symmetric static…
Light's Bending Angle in the Equatorial Plane of a Kerr Black Hole
Savitri V. Iyer, Edward C. Hansen
We present here a detailed derivation of an explicit spin-dependent expression for the bending angle of light as it traverses in the equatorial plane of a spinning black hole. We s…
