Extended bodies with spin induced quadrupoles on circular equatorial orbits in Kerr spacetime
Iason Timogiannis, Georgios Lukes-Gerakopoulos, Theocharis A. Apostolatos
This work discusses the motion of extended test bodies as described by the Mathisson-Papapetrou-Dixon (MPD) equations in the pole-dipole-quadrupole approximation. We focus on the c…
Spinning test body orbiting around a Kerr black hole: Comparing Spin Supplementary Conditions for Circular Equatorial Orbits
Iason Timogiannis, Georgios Lukes-Gerakopoulos, Theocharis A. Apostolatos
The worldline of a spinning test body moving in curved spacetime can be provided by the Mathisson-Papapetrou-Dixon (MPD) equations when its centroid, i.e. its center of mass, is fi…
Spinning test body orbiting around a Schwarzschild black hole: Comparing Spin Supplementary Conditions for Circular Equatorial Orbits
Iason Timogiannis, Georgios Lukes-Gerakopoulos, Theocharis A. Apostolatos
The Mathisson-Papapetrou-Dixon (MPD) equations describe the motion of an extended test body in general relativity. This system of equations, though, is underdetermined and has to b…
