Effective two-body approach to the hierarchical three-body problem: quadrupole to 1PN
Adrien Kuntz, Francesco Serra, Enrico Trincherini
Many binary systems of interest for gravitational-wave astronomy are orbited by a third distant body, which can considerably alter their relativistic dynamics. Precision computatio…
An analytic approach to quasinormal modes for coupled linear systems
Lam Hui, Alessandro Podo, Luca Santoni +1
Quasinormal modes describe the ringdown of compact objects deformed by small perturbations. In generic theories of gravity that extend General Relativity, the linearized dynamics o…
Black hole superradiance with (dark) matter accretion
Lam Hui, Y. T. Albert Law, Luca Santoni +3
Studies of black hole superradiance often focus on the growth of a cloud in isolation, accompanied by the spin-down of the black hole. In this paper, we consider the additional eff…
Causality Constraints on Black Holes beyond GR
Francesco Serra, Javi Serra, Enrico Trincherini +1
We derive causality constraints on the simplest scalar-tensor theories in which black holes differ from what General Relativity predicts, a scalar coupled to the Gauss-Bonnet or th…
Effective Field Theory for the Perturbations of a Slowly Rotating Black Hole
Lam Hui, Alessandro Podo, Luca Santoni +1
We develop the effective theory for perturbations around black holes with scalar hair, in two directions. First, we show that the scalar-Gauss--Bonnet theory, often used as an exam…
Effective two-body approach to the hierarchical three-body problem
Adrien Kuntz, Francesco Serra, Enrico Trincherini
The motion of three bodies can be solved perturbatively when a tightly bound inner binary is orbited by a distant perturber, giving rise for example to the well-known Kozai-Lidov o…
