Black Hole Perturbation Toolkit: Low frequency and post-Newtonian expansions

Jakob Neef, Chris Kavanagh, Adrian Ottewill

The Teukolsky and SpinWeightedSpheroidalHarmonics packages of the black hole perturbation toolkit (BHPT) are one of the main public libraries to compute numerical solutions to the…

High-order gravitational late-time tails in Kerr spacetime

Marc Casals, Chris Kavanagh, Jakob Neef +1

We calculate high-order late-time tails of the retarded Green function of the Teukolsky equation for linear field perturbations of (subextremal) Kerr spacetime. We calculate these…

Analytical Fluxes from Generic Schwarzschild Geodesics

Majed Khalaf, Chris Kavanagh, Ofri Telem

We present an analytic method for computing gravitational-wave fluxes from bound Schwarzschild geodesics with arbitrary eccentricity. Our approach systematically expands the Fourie…

Post-Newtonian expansion of fluxes from a scalar charge on an inclined-spherical orbit about a Kerr black hole

Jezreel C. Castillo, Charles R. Evans, Chris Kavanagh +3

Efforts are underway to accurately model extreme-mass-ratio inspirals for binaries with a spinning (Kerr) primary. At lowest order the adiabatic evolution depends on the radiation…

Gravitational memory: new results from post-Newtonian and self-force theory

Kevin Cunningham, Chris Kavanagh, Adam Pound +3

We compute the (displacement) gravitational wave memory due to a quasicircular inspiral of two black holes using a variety of perturbative techniques. Within post-Newtonian theory,…

Post-Minkowskian self-force in the low-velocity limit: scalar field scattering

Donato Bini, Andrea Geralico, Chris Kavanagh +2

In this paper we present an approach to compute analytical post-Minkowskian corrections to unbound two-body scattering in the self-force formalism. Our method relies on a further l…
