Universality in the Transition from Inspiral to Plunge: High-Accuracy Analytic Solutions and Catastrophe Theory
Ariadna Ribes Metidieri, Béatrice Bonga, Badri Krishnan +1
We revisit the transition from inspiral to plunge for extreme mass-ratio inspirals on quasi-circular, inclined orbits in Kerr spacetime from the perspective of catastrophe theory.…

ESO Expanding Horizon White Paper: Revealing the properties of matter at supranuclear densities with gravitational waves
Tim Dietrich, Tanja Hinderer, Micaela Oertel +40
Understanding dense matter under extreme conditions is one of the most fundamental puzzles in modern physics. Complex interactions give rise to emergent, collective phenomena. Whil…
