Dynamical Friction in an Ultralight Scalar Medium across Coherent and Stochastic Regimes
Soumodeep Mitra, Jordan Wilson-Gerow
We study the conservative and dissipative forces on a Newtonian binary interacting with a nonrelativistic ultralight scalar medium. We derive integral expressions for the instantan…
Renormalized Dynamical Friction in Black-Hole Spacetimes
Jordan Wilson-Gerow
We derive the renormalized local equation of motion for the gravitational self-force on a compact object moving through matter in a black-hole spacetime. We integrate out the envir…
A Unified Treatment of the Self-Force Problem
Beka Modrekiladze, Ira Z. Rothstein, Jordan Wilson-Gerow
This paper introduces formalism, based on worldline effective field theory, which allows one to systematically calculate the gravitational self-force on a compact object immersed i…
On the Motion of Compact Objects in Relativistic Viscous Fluids
Beka Modrekiladze, Ira Z. Rothstein, Jordan Wilson-Gerow
We present a world-line effective field theory of compact objects moving relativistically through a viscous fluid. The theory is valid when velocity gradients are small compared to…
Correlated Worldline theory: Structure and Consistency
A. O. Barvinsky, J. Wilson-Gerow, P. C. E. Stamp
We give a formal treatment of the "Correlated Worldline" theory of quantum gravity. The generating functional is written as a product over multiple copies of the coupled matter and…
Propagators in the Correlated Worldline Theory of Quantum Gravity
Jordan Wilson-Gerow, P. C. E. Stamp
Starting from a formulation of Correlated Worldline (CWL) theory in terms of functional integrals over paths, we define propagators for particles and matter fields in this theory.…
Gravitational Decoherence, Asymptotic Quantization, and Entanglement Measures
Colby DeLisle, Jordan Wilson-Gerow, Philip Stamp
Graviton emission decoheres superpositions of matter states. We write the decoherence rate in terms of a "differential Bondi news" function, and show that this function can be writ…
A functional approach to soft graviton scattering and BMS charges
Jordan Wilson-Gerow, Colby DeLisle, Philip Stamp
We consider the interaction between a matter system and soft gravitons. We use a functional eikonal expansion to deal with the infrared divergences, and introduce a "composite gene…
