Extreme mass-ratio inspirals around rotating accelerating black holes
Xin-Dong Du, Tao Zhou, Wei Xiong +2
Extreme mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs) can magnify small departures from Kerr dynamics into appreciable gravitational-wave phase shifts accumulated over many orbital cycles. We explo…

Probing near-zone magnetic fields with extreme mass-ratio inspirals
Jin-Lu Hu, Xin-Dong Du, Peng-Cheng Li +1
We investigate whether weak near-zone magnetic fields can leave observable imprints on extreme-mass-ratio inspiral (EMRI) waveforms. The central massive black hole is modeled by th…

Stable massless scalar polarization of f(R) gravity
Xin-Dong Du, Peng-Cheng Li
Polarization is a prominent feature of gravitational wave observations and can be used to distinguish between different modified gravity theories. Compared to General Relativity, f…
