Extended-body approach to the electromagnetic self-force in curved spacetime
Javier Molina Sanchez, Eric Poisson
We offer a novel derivation of the electromagnetic self-force acting on a charged particle moving in an arbitrary curved spacetime. Our derivation is based on a generalization from…
Limitations of the adiabatic approximation to the gravitational self-force
Adam Pound, Eric Poisson, Bernhard G. Nickel
A small body moving in the field of a much larger black hole and subjected to its own gravity moves on an accelerated world line in the background spacetime of the large black hole…
Gravitational perturbations of the Schwarzschild spacetime: A practical covariant and gauge-invariant formalism
Karl Martel, Eric Poisson
We present a formalism to study the metric perturbations of the Schwarzschild spacetime. The formalism is gauge invariant, and it is also covariant under two-dimensional coordinate…
Metric of a tidally distorted, nonrotating black hole
Eric Poisson
The metric of a tidally distorted, nonrotating black hole is presented in a light-cone coordinate system that penetrates the event horizon and possesses a clear geometrical meaning…
