Gravitomagnetic Helicity
Donato Bini, Bahram Mashhoon, Yuri N. Obukhov
Mass currents in astrophysics generate gravitomagnetic fields of enormous complexity. Gravitomagnetic helicity, in direct analogy with magnetic helicity, is a measure of entwining…
Petrov type I spacetime curvature: principal null vector spanning dimension
Donato Bini, Andrea Geralico, Robert T. Jantzen
The class of Petrov type I curvature tensors is further divided into those for which the span of the set of distinct principal null directions has dimension four (maximally spannin…
Frequency domain analysis of the gravitational wave energy loss in hyperbolic encounters
Donato Bini, Andrea Geralico
The energy radiated (without the 1.5PN tail contribution which requires a different treatment) by a binary system of compact objects moving in a hyperboliclike orbit is computed in…
Higher-order tail contributions to the energy and angular momentum fluxes in a two-body scattering process
Donato Bini, Andrea Geralico
The need for more and more accurate gravitational wave templates requires taking into account all possible contributions to the emission of gravitational radiation from a binary sy…
Radiative contributions to gravitational scattering
Donato Bini, Thibault Damour, Andrea Geralico
The linear-order effects of radiation-reaction on the classical scattering of two point masses, in General Relativity, are derived by a variation-of-constants method. Explicit expr…
Investigating new forms of gravity-matter couplings in the gravitational field equations
Donato Bini, Giampiero Esposito
This paper proposes a toy model where, in the Einstein equations, the right-hand side is modified by the addition of a term proportional to the symmetrized partial contraction of t…
