Observational selection effects on radio pulsars are minimal for masses, but significant for orbits and spins

Lisa V. Drummond, Katerina Chatziioannou, Emmanuel Fonseca

The masses of Galactic pulsars in binaries measured through radio timing point to structure in the mass distribution with implications for dense matter and astrophysical formation…

Pitching Cosmic Curveballs: Environmental Effects on Extreme-Mass-Ratio Inspirals with Spinning Secondaries

Leif Lui, Lisa V. Drummond, Alejandro Torres-Orjuela

Much like the aerodynamic deflection of a spinning curveball, a rotating secondary in an extreme-mass-ratio inspiral (EMRI) experiences Magnus and lift forces, in addition to the s…

Shifted-geodesic approximation for spinning-body gravitational wave fluxes

Lisa V. Drummond, Scott A. Hughes, Viktor Skoupý +2

We present a shifted-geodesic framework for computing gravitational-wave fluxes from spinning test bodies moving on bound orbits of Kerr black holes. The method provides a simple a…

Prospects for EMRI/MBH parameter estimation using Quasi-Periodic Eruption timings: short-timescale analysis

Joheen Chakraborty, Lisa V. Drummond, Matteo Bonetti +11

Quasi-Periodic Eruptions (QPEs) are luminous, recurring X-ray outbursts from galactic nuclei, with timescales of hours to days. While their origin remains uncertain, leading models…

Extreme mass-ratio inspiral and waveforms for a spinning body into a Kerr black hole via osculating geodesics and near-identity transformations

Lisa V. Drummond, Philip Lynch, Alexandra G. Hanselman +2

Understanding the orbits of spinning bodies in curved spacetime is important for modeling binary black hole systems with small mass ratios. At zeroth order in mass ratio, the small…

Stability of interlinked neutron vortex and proton flux-tube arrays in a neutron star -- III. Proton feedback

K. H. Thong, A. Melatos, L. V. Drummond

The coupled, time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii and Ginzburg-Landau equations are solved simultaneously in three dimensions to investigate the equilibrium state and far-from-equilibri…
