Analytic Solution for the Motion of Spinning Particles in Kerr Space-Time
Viktor Skoupý, Vojtěch Witzany
The equations of motion of massive test particles near Kerr black holes are separable in Boyer-Lindquist coordinates, as established by Carter. This separability, however, is lost…
Actions of spinning compact binaries: Spinning particle in Kerr matched to dynamics at 1.5 post-Newtonian order
Vojtěch Witzany, Viktor Skoupý, Leo C. Stein +1
The motion of compact binaries is influenced by the spin of their components starting at the 1.5 post-Newtonian (PN) order. On the other hand, in the large mass ratio limit, the sp…
Post-Newtonian expansions of extreme mass ratio inspirals of spinning bodies into Schwarzschild black holes
Viktor Skoupý, Vojtěch Witzany
Space-based gravitational-wave detectors such as LISA are expected to detect inspirals of stellar-mass compact objects into massive black holes. Modeling such inspirals requires fu…
Fast inspirals and the treatment of orbital resonances
Philip Lynch, Vojtěch Witzany, Maarten van de Meent +1
Extreme mass ratio inspirals (EMRIs), where a compact object orbits a massive black hole, are a key source of gravitational waves for the future Laser Interferometer Space Antenna…
Repeating Nuclear Transients as Candidate Electromagnetic Counterparts of LISA Extreme Mass Ratio Inspirals
Shubham Kejriwal, Vojtech Witzany, Michal Zajacek +2
Extreme-mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs) are one of the primary targets for the recently adopted millihertz gravitational-wave (GW) observatory LISA. Some previous studies have argued…
A Case for a Binary Black Hole System Revealed via Quasi-Periodic Outflows
Dheeraj R. Pasham, Francesco Tombesi, Petra Sukova +33
Binaries containing a compact object orbiting a supermassive black hole are thought to be precursors of gravitational wave events, but their identification has been extremely chall…
Alive but Barely Kicking: News from 3+ years of Swift and XMM-Newton X-ray Monitoring of Quasi-Periodic Eruptions from eRO-QPE1
Dheeraj R. Pasham, Eric R. Coughlin, Michal Zajacek +11
Quasi-periodic Eruptions (QPEs) represent a novel class of extragalactic X-ray transients that are known to repeat at roughly regular intervals of a few hours to days. Their underl…
