Extreme mass-ratio inspirals in ultra-light dark matter
Francisco Duque, Caio F. B. Macedo, Rodrigo Vicente +1
Previous works have argued that future gravitational-wave detectors will be able to probe the properties of astrophysical environments where binary coalesce, including accretion di…
Relativistic drag forces on black holes from scalar dark matter clouds of all sizes
Dina Traykova, Rodrigo Vicente, Katy Clough +4
We use numerical simulations of scalar field dark matter evolving on a moving black hole background to confirm the regime of validity of (semi-)analytic expressions derived from fi…
Can gravitational-wave memory help constrain binary black-hole parameters? A LISA case study
Silvia Gasparotto, Rodrigo Vicente, Diego Blas +2
Besides the transient effect, the passage of a gravitational wave also causes a persistent displacement in the relative position of an interferometer's test masses through the \emp…
Parasitic black holes: the swallowing of a fuzzy dark matter soliton
Vitor Cardoso, Taishi Ikeda, Rodrigo Vicente +1
Fuzzy dark matter is an exciting alternative to the standard cold dark matter paradigm, reproducing its large scale predictions, while solving most of the existing tension with sma…
New Horizons for Fundamental Physics with LISA
K. G. Arun, Enis Belgacem, Robert Benkel +138
The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) has the potential to reveal wonders about the fundamental theory of nature at play in the extreme gravity regime, where the gravitatio…
Dynamical friction of black holes in ultralight dark matter
Rodrigo Vicente, Vitor Cardoso
In this work we derive simple closed-form expressions for the dynamical friction acting on black holes moving through ultralight (scalar field) dark matter, covering both non-relat…
