Eccentricity evolution of compact binaries and applications to gravitational-wave physics
Vitor Cardoso, Caio F. B. Macedo, Rodrigo Vicente
Searches for gravitational waves from compact binaries focus mostly on quasi-circular motion, with the rationale that wave emission circularizes the orbit. Here, we study the gener…
The tune of the universe: the role of plasma in tests of strong-field gravity
Vitor Cardoso, Wen-di Guo, Caio F. B. Macedo +1
Gravitational-wave astronomy, together with precise pulsar timing and long baseline interferometry, is changing our ability to perform tests of fundamental physics with astrophysic…
Drifting through the medium: kicks and self-propulsion of binaries within accretion disks and other environments
Vitor Cardoso, Caio F. B. Macedo
Compact binaries are within the reach of gravitational and electromagnetic wave detectors, and are important for our understanding of astrophysical environments and the composition…
Scalar modes, spontaneous scalarization and circular null-geodesics of black holes in scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity
Caio F. B. Macedo
In general relativity, astrophysical black holes are simple objects, being described by just their mass and spin. These simple solutions are not exclusive to general relativity, as…
