Charged Black-Hole Binary Evolution at Second Post-Newtonian Order
Andrea Placidi, Elisa Grilli, Marta Orselli +3
We study the dynamics of electrically charged black-hole binaries and their gravitational-wave emission during the inspiral phase. Within the post-Newtonian framework, we derive th…
Tidal perturbations of an extreme mass ratio inspiral around a Kerr black hole
Marta Cocco, Gianluca Grignani, Troels Harmark +3
We determine the metric of a Kerr black hole subject to external tidal fields using metric reconstruction techniques. Working within the Newman-Penrose formalism, we solve the Teuk…
Observable signature of magnetic tidal coupling in hierarchical triple systems
Marta Cocco, Gianluca Grignani, Troels Harmark +3
We study hierarchical triple systems formed by a compact binary orbiting a supermassive black hole (SMBH), focusing on the role of relativistic magnetic tidal interactions. Extendi…
Strong-gravity precession resonances for binary systems orbiting a Schwarzschild black hole
Marta Cocco, Gianluca Grignani, Troels Harmark +2
Binary systems of compact objects in close orbit around a supermassive black hole (SMBH) may form in galactic nuclei, providing a unique environment to probe strong-gravity tidal e…
Charged Binaries in Gravitational Tides
Elisa Grilli, Marta Orselli, David Pereñiguez +1
Next-generation low-frequency interferometers are expected to detect binary systems near supermassive black holes, where tidal effects can alter significantly the motion of the bin…
Direct current memory effects in effective-one-body waveform models
Elisa Grilli, Andrea Placidi, Simone Albanesi +2
The direct current (DC) memory is a non-oscillatory, hereditary component of the gravitational wave (GW) signal that represents one of the most peculiar manifestations of the nonli…
