Self-force via -mode regularization and 2+1D evolution: III. Gravitational field on Schwarzschild spacetime
Sam R. Dolan, Leor Barack
This is the third in a series of papers aimed at developing a practical time-domain method for self-force calculations in Kerr spacetime. The key elements of the method are (i) rem…
Gravitational self-force and the effective-one-body formalism between the innermost stable circular orbit and the light ring
Sarp Akcay, Leor Barack, Thibault Damour +1
We compute the conservative piece of the gravitational self-force (GSF) acting on a particle of mass m_1 as it moves along an (unstable) circular geodesic orbit between the innermo…
Critical phenomena at the threshold of immediate merger in binary black hole systems: the extreme mass ratio case
Carsten Gundlach, Sarp Akcay, Leor Barack +1
In numerical simulations of black hole binaries, Pretorius and Khurana [Class. Quant. Grav. {\bf 24}, S83 (2007)] have observed critical behaviour at the threshold between scatteri…
Scientific Objectives of Einstein Telescope
B. Sathyaprakash, M. Abernathy, F. Acernese +222
The advanced interferometer network will herald a new era in observational astronomy. There is a very strong science case to go beyond the advanced detector network and build detec…
