Gravitational wave signatures of subsolar neutron star formation in collapsar disks
Vishal Baibhav, Valerio De Luca, Loris Del Grosso +3
Standard models for stellar core collapse predict the birth of neutron stars with masses exceeding a solar mass. In the collapsar model, a rapidly rotating massive star collapses t…
Dynamical tidal response of neutron stars: From effective field theory to gravitational waveforms
Thomas Apostolidis, Valerio De Luca, Leonardo Gualtieri +3
We investigate the fully relativistic dynamical tidal response of neutron stars up to second order in the frequency. Combining the worldline effective field theory for extended gra…
Flea on the elephant: Tidal Love numbers in subsolar primordial black hole searches
Valerio De Luca, Gabriele Franciolini, Antonio Riotto
Detecting subsolar objects in black hole binary mergers is considered a smoking gun signature of primordial black holes. Their supposedly vanishing tidal Love number is generically…
Tidal Love numbers and Green's functions in black hole spacetimes
Valerio De Luca, Alice Garoffolo, Justin Khoury +1
Tidal interactions play a crucial role in deciphering gravitational wave signals emitted by the coalescence of binary systems. They are usually quantified by a set of complex coeff…
Tidal Love numbers and approximate universal relations for fermion soliton stars
Emanuele Berti, Valerio De Luca, Loris Del Grosso +1
Fermion soliton stars are a consistent model of exotic compact objects which involve a nonlinear interaction between a real scalar field and fermions through a Yukawa term. This in…
Non-linearities in the tidal Love numbers of black holes
Valerio De Luca, Justin Khoury, Sam S. C. Wong
Tidal Love numbers describe the linear response of a compact object under the presence of external tidal perturbations, and they are found to vanish exactly for black holes within…
