Towards ultrarelativistic scattering near the light ring: asymptotic divergence of gravitational-wave fluxes
David Trestini, Riccardo Gonzo, Benjamin Leather
Near the threshold between scattering and capture by a Schwarzschild black hole, a particle spends a long time close to an unstable circular orbit, which in the ultrarelativistic l…
Second-order Teukolsky calculations for nonspinning, quasicircular binaries
Benjamin Leather, Andrew Spiers, Adam Pound +4
Currently, the only second-order gravitational self-force calculations have been based on directly solving the perturbative Einstein equations in the Lorenz gauge. That method reli…
Dissection of a merger-ringdown waveform in the small-mass-ratio limit
Patrick Bourg, Lorenzo Küchler, Benjamin Leather +6
Work over the past two decades has unveiled the rich phenomenology of black hole binary mergers and subsequent ringdowns, involving a tapestry of quasinormal modes (QNMs), nonlinea…
Resummed energy loss in extreme-mass-ratio scattering using critical orbits
Leor Barack, Riccardo Gonzo, Benjamin Leather +2
Motivated by recent efforts to bridge between weak-field and strong-field descriptions of black-hole binary dynamics, we develop a resummation scheme for post-Minkowskian radiative…
