Horizon Surface Gravity in Corotating Black Hole Binaries
Alexandre Le Tiec, Philippe Grandclément
For binary systems of corotating black holes, the zeroth law of black hole mechanics states that the surface gravity is constant over each component of the horizon. Using the appro…

First Law of Compact Binary Mechanics with Gravitational-Wave Tails
Luc Blanchet, Alexandre Le Tiec
We derive the first law of binary point-particle mechanics for generic bound (i.e. eccentric) orbits at the fourth post-Newtonian (4PN) order, accounting for the non-locality in ti…
