Gravitational self-torque and spin precession in compact binaries
Sam R. Dolan, Niels Warburton, Abraham I. Harte +3
We calculate the effect of self-interaction on the "geodetic" spin precession of a compact body in a strong-field orbit around a black hole. Specifically, we consider the spin prec…
Absorption of planar massless scalar waves by Kerr black holes
Caio F. B. Macedo, Luiz C. S. Leite, Ednilton S. Oliveira +2
We consider planar massless scalar waves impinging upon a Kerr black hole, for general angles of incidence. We compute the absorption cross section via the partial wave approach, a…
Self-Force and Green Function in Schwarzschild spacetime via Quasinormal Modes and Branch Cut
Marc Casals, Sam Dolan, Adrian C. Ottewill +1
The motion of a small compact object in a curved background spacetime deviates from a geodesic due to the action of its own field, giving rise to a self-force. This self-force may…
