Waveforms and Fluxes of Generic Extreme-Mass-Ratio Inspirals with a Spinning Secondary
Qiuxin Cui, Wen-Biao Han
The paper develops a method to compute gravitational-wave fluxes and waveforms for extreme-mass-ratio inspirals that include the spin of the smaller compact object, using a linear‑…
Horizon-redshift transfer in black-hole direct-wave damping
Wen-Biao Han, Ye Jiang
Direct waves from black-hole mergers may probe horizon dynamics, but their observed envelopes need not decay at the Kerr surface-gravity rate. We compute the complex-frequency spin…
Measurability of Quadrupole Deviations from Kerr in Binary black hole Mergers
Song Li, Wen-Biao Han
We investigate the measurability of black hole quadrupole deviations from Kerr using five binary black hole mergers observed by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration with the beyond-g…
Long-Lived Ringing of Near-Extremal Kerr Black Holes Resonantly Driven by Extreme-Mass-Ratio Inspirals
Wen-Biao Han
Near-extremal Kerr black holes support zero-damped modes (ZDMs), whose small time-domain damping rates make them long-lived probes of the near-horizon region. We show that bound ex…
A self-consistent EOB--Teukolsky framework for generic extreme mass-ratio inspirals
Xingyu Zhong, Wen-Biao Han, Ye Jiang +2
We present a full-relativistic waveform model for extreme mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs) by self-consistently combining the effective one-body (EOB) formalism with the Teukolsky equa…
Probing Active Galactic Nuclei and Measuring the Hubble constant with Extreme-Mass-Ratio Inspirals
Jian-Dong Liu, Wen-Biao Han, Hiromichi Tagawa
Extreme-mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs) carry valuable information about their surrounding astrophysical environments. Over the course of their long-term evolution, interactions betwe…
