Self-forced inspirals with spin-orbit precession
Philip Lynch, Maarten van de Meent, Niels Warburton
We develop the first model for extreme mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs) with misaligned angular momentum and primary spin, and zero eccentricity -- also known as quasi-spherical inspir…
Eternal binaries
Jaime Redondo-Yuste, Vitor Cardoso, Caio F. B. Macedo +1
The two-body problem is extensively studied in open systems and asymptotically flat spacetimes. However, there are many systems where radiation is trapped: they range from radiatin…
Laying the foundation of the effective-one-body waveform models SEOBNRv5: improved accuracy and efficiency for spinning non-precessing binary black holes
Lorenzo Pompili, Alessandra Buonanno, Héctor Estellés +21
We present SEOBNRv5HM, a more accurate and faster inspiral-merger-ringdown gravitational waveform model for quasi-circular, spinning, nonprecessing binary black holes within the ef…
Enhancing the SEOBNRv5 effective-one-body waveform model with second-order gravitational self-force fluxes
Maarten van de Meent, Alessandra Buonanno, Deyan P. Mihaylov +7
We leverage recent breakthrough calculations using second-order gravitational self-force (2GSF) theory to improve both the gravitational-mode amplitudes and radiation-reaction forc…
Defining eccentricity for gravitational wave astronomy
Md Arif Shaikh, Vijay Varma, Harald P. Pfeiffer +2
Eccentric compact binary mergers are significant scientific targets for current and future gravitational wave observatories. To detect and analyze eccentric signals, there is an in…
Kerr-fully Diving into the Abyss: Analytic Solutions to Plunging Geodesics in Kerr
Conor Dyson, Maarten van de Meent
We present closed-form solutions for plunging geodesics in the extended Kerr spacetime using Boyer-Lindquist coordinates. Our solutions directly solve for the dynamics of generic t…
