Gravitational-Wave Recoil from the Ringdown Phase of Coalescing Black Hole Binaries
Alexandre Le Tiec, Luc Blanchet, Clifford M. Will
The gravitational recoil or "kick" of a black hole formed from the merger of two orbiting black holes, and caused by the anisotropic emission of gravitational radiation, is an astr…
The Close-Limit Approximation for Black Hole Binaries with Post-Newtonian Initial Conditions
Alexandre Le Tiec, Luc Blanchet
The ringdown phase of a black hole formed from the merger of two orbiting black holes is described by means of the close-limit (CL) approximation starting from second-post-Newtonia…
Post-Newtonian and Numerical Calculations of the Gravitational Self-Force for Circular Orbits in the Schwarzschild Geometry
Luc Blanchet, Steven Detweiler, Alexandre Le Tiec +1
The problem of a compact binary system whose components move on circular orbits is addressed using two different approximation techniques in general relativity. The post-Newtonian…
Dipolar Dark Matter and Dark Energy
Luc Blanchet, Alexandre Le Tiec
In previous work [L. Blanchet and A. Le Tiec, Phys. Rev. D 78, 024031 (2008)], a model of dark matter and dark energy based on the concept of gravitational polarization was investi…
