Eccentric Binary Black Holes with Spin via the Direct Integration of the Post-Newtonian Equations of Motion
Brennan Ireland, Ofek Birnholtz, Hiroyuki Nakano +2
We integrate the third and a half post-Newtonian equations of motion for a fully generic binary black hole system, allowing both for non-circular orbits, and for one or both of the…
Spinning, Precessing, Black Hole Binary Spacetime via Asymptotic Matching
Hiroyuki Nakano, Brennan Ireland, Manuela Campanelli +1
We briefly discuss a method to construct a global, analytic, approximate spacetime for precessing, spinning binary black holes. The spacetime construction is broken into three part…
Scalar Kinks in Warped Extra Dimensions
Manuel Toharia, Mark Trodden, Eric J. West
We study the existence and stability of static kink-like configurations of a 5D scalar field, with Dirichlet boundary conditions, along the extra dimension of a warped braneworld.…
Can Cosmic Parallax Distinguish Between Anisotropic Cosmologies?
Michele Fontanini, Mark Trodden, Eric J. West
In an anisotropic universe, observers not positioned at a point of special symmetry should observe cosmic parallax - the relative angular motion of test galaxies over cosmic time.…
Preheating in Derivatively-Coupled Inflation Models
Cristian Armendariz-Picon, Mark Trodden, Eric J. West
We study preheating in theories where the inflaton couples derivatively to scalar and gauge fields. Such couplings may dominate in natural models of inflation, in which the flatnes…
