"Waveforms" at the Horizon

Andrea Cipriani, Francesco Fucito, Carlo Heissenberg +2

We study perturbations induced by a light particle scattering off a Schwarzschild black hole. Exploiting recent results for the wave propagation in this geometry, we derive the fie…

Reconstructing the Gravitational Waveform from Its Probe Limit

Carlo Heissenberg, Rodolfo Russo

Gravitational observables for binary systems exhibit a simple polynomial dependence on the masses , of the two scattering objects when they are written in terms of the a…

Finite actions and asymptotic charges at null infinity for any spin

Andrea Campoleoni, Arnaud Delfante, Dario Francia +1

We identify boundary terms renormalizing the free on-shell actions for massless fields of arbitrary spin, including electromagnetism and linearized gravity, with boundary condition…

Radiation-Reaction and Angular Momentum Loss at

Carlo Heissenberg

We point out that the odd-in-velocity contribution to the radiated angular momentum for two-body scattering is determined by the radiation-reaction (RR) term in…

Nonlinear Gravitational Memory in the Post-Minkowskian Expansion

Alessandro Georgoudis, Vasco Goncalves, Carlo Heissenberg +1

We present the first computation of the nonlinear gravitational memory waveform for the scattering of two compact objects in General Relativity at leading order in the post-Minkows…

Revisiting gravitational angular momentum and mass dipole losses in the eikonal framework

Carlo Heissenberg, Rodolfo Russo

We review the description of classical gravitational scatterings of two compact objects by means of the eikonal framework. This encodes via scattering amplitudes both the motion of…
