Dipolar boson stars as static two-body systems: an effective-one-body description
Thibault Damour, Romain Gervalle, Tamanna Jain
Dipolar boson stars consist of two scalar-field lumps held in static equilibrium by the balance between gravitational attraction and scalar repulsion. The repulsion stems from a $π…
High-order effective-one-body tidal interactions and gravitational scattering
Malte Schulze, Sebastiano Bernuzzi, Piero Rettegno +3
Using state-of-the-art scattering results in post-Minkowskian (PM) gravity, we improve the tidal sector of four different flavors of the effective-one-body (EOB) formalism. We nota…
Gravitational scattering of solitonic boson stars: Analytics vs Numerics
Thibault Damour, Tamanna Jain, Ulrich Sperhake
We study the scattering of boson-star binaries, taking into account three effects: point-mass gravitational, tidal, and short-range scalar-field interactions. We compare analytic r…
GW250114: testing Hawking's area law and the Kerr nature of black holes
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1785
The gravitational-wave signal GW250114 was observed by the two LIGO detectors with a network matched-filter signal-to-noise ratio of 80. The signal was emitted by the coalescence o…
