We derive an expression for the second-order gravitational self-force that acts on a self-gravitating compact-object moving in a curved background spacetime. First we develop a new method of derivation and apply it to the derivation of the…

We derive the approximate, ``analytic-kludge'' (AK) waveforms for the inspiral of a charged stellar-mass compact object (CO) into a charged massive Kerr-Newman (KN) black hole (BH). The modifications of the inspiral orbit due to the charges…
We extend the Ori and Thorne (OT) procedure to compute the transition from an adiabatic inspiral into a geodesic plunge for any spin, with emphasis on near-extremal ones. Our analysis revisits the validity of the approximations made in OT.…
We describe a general procedure to generate spinning, precessing waveforms that include inspiral, merger and ringdown stages in the effective-one-body (EOB) approach. The procedure uses a precessing frame in which precession-induced…
