Black Hole Response Theory and its Exact Shockwave Limit

Lara Bohnenblust, Carl Jordan Eriksen, Jitze Hoogeveen +2

We present a black hole response formalism formulated within the worldline approach to the classical gravitational two-body problem. The central objects are response functions: a h…

Gravitational Bremsstrahlung in Black-Hole Scattering at : Quadratic-in-Spin Effects

Lara Bohnenblust, Harald Ita, Manfred Kraus +1

We are employing a supersymmetric variant of the worldline quantum field theory (WQFT) formalism to compute the far-field momentum-space gravitational waveform emitted during the s…

To bounce or not to bounce in generalized Proca theory and beyond

Lara Bohnenblust, Serena Giardino, Lavinia Heisenberg +1

It is notoriously difficult to construct a stable non-singular bouncing cosmology that avoids all possible instabilities throughout the entire evolution of the universe. In this wo…

Binary Kerr black-hole scattering at 2PM from quantum higher-spin Compton

Lara Bohnenblust, Lucile Cangemi, Henrik Johansson +1

Quantum higher-spin theory applied to Compton amplitudes has proven to be surprisingly useful for elucidating Kerr black hole dynamics. Here we apply the framework to compute scatt…

Gravitational Bremsstrahlung in Black-Hole Scattering at : Linear-in-Spin Effects

Lara Bohnenblust, Harald Ita, Manfred Kraus +1

We compute the far-field time-domain waveform of the gravitational waves produced in the scattering of two spinning massive objects. The results include linear-in-spin () coupli…
