Breakdown of hydrodynamic universality in causal first-order viscous neutron star oscillations

Lennox S. Keeble, Alejandro Cárdenas-Avendaño

Hydrodynamic modeling of viscous neutron stars requires a choice of theory of relativistic hydrodynamics. That distinct formulations contain the same physical content in the long-w…

Quadratic Gravitational-Wave Scattering by Kerr Black Holes

Lennox S. Keeble, Hengrui Zhu, Lawrence E. Kidder +2

Second-order black-hole perturbation theory will be an important component of precision gravitational-wave modeling and tests of strong-field gravity with next-generation detectors…

A Systematic Study of Resonance-Driven Flux Modifications in Extreme-Mass-Ratio Inspirals

Edoardo Levati, Lennox S. Keeble, Alejandro Cárdenas-Avendaño

Transient orbital resonances can introduce phase-dependent corrections to the evolution of extreme-mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs), potentially altering their long-term dynamics and e…

Radial Oscillations of Viscous Stars

Lennox S. Keeble, Jaime Redondo-Yuste

Oscillation modes of neutron stars, a key target for third-generation gravitational wave detectors, encode key information about their constituent nuclear matter. In this work, we…

First-Order Viscous Relativistic Hydrodynamics on the Two-Sphere

Lennox S. Keeble, Frans Pretorius

A few years ago, Bemfica, Disconzi, Noronha, and Kovtun (BDNK) formulated the first causal, stable, strongly hyperbolic, and locally well-posed theory of first-order viscous relati…

Estimating High-Order Time Derivatives of Kerr Orbital Functionals

Lennox S. Keeble, Alejandro Cárdenas-Avendaño

Functions of bound Kerr geodesic motion play a central role in many calculations in relativistic astrophysics, ranging from gravitational-wave generation to self-force and radiatio…

Inferring Black Hole Spin from Interferometric Measurements of the First Photon Ring: A Geometric Approach

Lennox S. Keeble, Alejandro Cárdenas-Avendaño, Daniel C. M. Palumbo

Accurately inferring black hole spin is crucial for understanding black hole dynamics and their astrophysical environments. In this work, we outline a geometric method for spin est…

The Black Hole Explorer: Photon Ring Science, Detection and Shape Measurement

Alexandru Lupsasca, Alejandro Cárdenas-Avendaño, Daniel C. M. Palumbo +6

General relativity predicts that black hole images ought to display a bright, thin (and as-of-yet-unresolved) ring. This "photon ring" is produced by photons that explore the stron…

Assessing the impact of instrument noise and astrophysical fluctuations on measurements of the first black hole photon ring

Alejandro Cárdenas-Avendaño, Lennox Keeble, Alexandru Lupsasca

Currently envisioned extensions of the Event Horizon Telescope to space will soon target the black hole photon ring: a narrow ring-shaped imprint of a black hole's strong gravity p…
