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…

Spinning the Probe in Kerr with WQFT
Jitze Hoogeveen, Gustav Uhre Jakobsen, Jan Plefka
We investigate the gravitational scattering of a spinning probe mass in a Kerr background using the worldline quantum field theory (WQFT) approach. This corresponds to the leading…
