Self-force as a cosmic censor
Peter Zimmerman, Ian Vega, Eric Poisson +1
We examine Hubeny's scenario according to which a near-extremal Reissner-Nordström black hole can absorb a particle and be driven toward an over-extremal state in which the charge…
Tidal heating and torquing of a Kerr black hole to next-to-leading order in the tidal coupling
Katerina Chatziioannou, Eric Poisson, Nicolas Yunes
We calculate the linear vacuum perturbations of a Kerr black hole surrounded by a slowly-varying external spacetime to third order in the ratio of the black-hole mass to the radius…
Self-force as probe of internal structure
Soichiro Isoyama, Eric Poisson
The self-force acting on a (scalar or electric) charge held in place outside a massive body contains information about the body's composition, and can therefore be used as a probe…
Regularization of static self-forces
Marc Casals, Eric Poisson, Ian Vega
Various regularization methods have been used to compute the self-force acting on a static particle in a static, curved spacetime. Many of these are based on Hadamard's two-point f…
