Coulombic contribution to the flux of angular momentum in general relativity

Béatrice Bonga, Eric Poisson

The flux of angular momentum in electromagnetism cannot be expressed entirely in terms of the field's radiative degrees of freedom. Its expression also involves Coulombic pieces of…

Trace of the energy-momentum tensor and macroscopic properties of neutron stars

Dylan M. Podkowka, Raissa F. P. Mendes, Eric Poisson

A generic feature of scalar extensions of general relativity is the coupling of the scalar degrees of freedom to the trace of the energy-momentum tensor of matter fields. Inter…

Self-torque and angular momentum balance for a spinning charged sphere

Beatrice Bonga, Eric Poisson, Huan Yang

Angular momentum balance is examined in the context of the electrodynamics of a spinning charged sphere, which is allowed to possess any variable angular velocity. We calculate the…

Nonrotating black hole in a post-Newtonian tidal environment II

Eric Poisson, Eamonn Corrigan

In the first part of the paper we construct the metric of a tidally deformed, nonrotating black hole. The metric is presented as an expansion in powers of r/b << 1, in which r is t…

EZ gauge is singular at the event horizon

Eamonn Corrigan, Eric Poisson

We prove that the EZ gauge of black-hole perturbation theory, introduced by the late Steve Detweiler in his exploration of the physical consequences of the gravitational self-force…

Self-force as a probe of global structure

Karl Davidson, Eric Poisson

We calculate the self-force on an electric charge and electric dipole held at rest in a closed universe that results from joining two copies of Minkowski spacetime at a common boun…
