The fate of observers in circular motion
Antoine Lehébel, Vitor Cardoso
In Newtonian physics or in general relativity, energy dissipation causes observers moving along circular orbits to slowly spiral towards the source of the gravitational field. We s…
Black hole scalarization with Gauss-Bonnet and Ricci scalar couplings
Georgios Antoniou, Antoine Lehébel, Giulia Ventagli +1
Spontaneous scalarization is a gravitational phenomenon in which deviations from general relativity arise once a certain threshold in curvature is exceeded, while being entirely ab…
The onset of spontaneous scalarization in generalised scalar-tensor theories
Giulia Ventagli, Antoine Lehébel, Thomas P. Sotiriou
In gravity theories that exhibit spontaneous scalarization, astrophysical objects are identical to their general relativistic counterpart until they reach a certain threshold in co…
Black holes in self-tuning cubic Horndeski cosmology
William T. Emond, Antoine Lehébel, Paul M. Saffin
Observations of neutron star mergers in the late Universe have given significant restrictions to the class of viable scalar-tensor theories. In this paper we construct black holes…
A natural theory of dark energy
Lorenzo Bordin, Francesc Cunillera, Antoine Lehébel +1
We propose a mechanism that generates a naturally light dark energy field (with Hubble scale mass), starting from a theory with exclusively high scale (Planckian) couplings. It is…
Compact astrophysical objects in modified gravity
Antoine Lehébel
Twenty years have passed since the discovery of the accelerated expansion of the Universe, reviving the interest for alternative theories of gravity. Adding a scalar degree of free…
