Leor Barack, Curt Cutler
Captures of compact objects (COs) by massive black holes in galactic nuclei (aka ``extreme-mass-ratio inspirals'') will be an important source for LISA. However, a large fraction o…

Calculating the self force in Schwarzschild spacetime by mode-sum regularization
Leor Barack, Amos Ori
We outline a method for calculating the self force (the "radiation reaction force") acting on a scalar particle in a strong field orbit in a Schwarzschild spacetime. In this method…
