Tidal perturbations of an extreme mass ratio inspiral around a Kerr black hole

Marta Cocco, Gianluca Grignani, Troels Harmark +3

We determine the metric of a Kerr black hole subject to external tidal fields using metric reconstruction techniques. Working within the Newman-Penrose formalism, we solve the Teuk…

Exploring the gauge flexibility of the linear-in-spin effective-one-body Hamiltonian at the 5.5 post-Newtonian order

Andrea Placidi, Luca Sebastiani, Gianluca Grignani

We derive the gauge-general expressions of the two gyro-gravitomagnetic functions entering the spin-orbit sector of the effective-one-body (EOB) Hamiltonian up to the fifth-and-hal…

Observable signature of magnetic tidal coupling in hierarchical triple systems

Marta Cocco, Gianluca Grignani, Troels Harmark +3

We study hierarchical triple systems formed by a compact binary orbiting a supermassive black hole (SMBH), focusing on the role of relativistic magnetic tidal interactions. Extendi…

Strong-gravity precession resonances for binary systems orbiting a Schwarzschild black hole

Marta Cocco, Gianluca Grignani, Troels Harmark +2

Binary systems of compact objects in close orbit around a supermassive black hole (SMBH) may form in galactic nuclei, providing a unique environment to probe strong-gravity tidal e…

Direct current memory effects in effective-one-body waveform models

Elisa Grilli, Andrea Placidi, Simone Albanesi +2

The direct current (DC) memory is a non-oscillatory, hereditary component of the gravitational wave (GW) signal that represents one of the most peculiar manifestations of the nonli…

Binary mergers in strong gravity background of Kerr black hole

Filippo Camilloni, Gianluca Grignani, Troels Harmark +2

Binary-black-hole (BBH) mergers can take place close to a supermassive black hole (SMBH) while being in a bound orbit around the SMBH. In this paper, we study such bound triple sys…
