The dynamics of compact binary systems at the fourth post-Newtonian (4PN) approximation of general relativity has been recently completed in a self-consistent way. In this paper, we compute the ten Poincar\'e constants of the motion and…

Modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND) is a promising alternative to dark matter. To further test the theory, there is a need for fluid- and particle-dynamics simulations. The force in MOND is not a direct particle-particle interaction, but…

Using the post-Newtonian effective field theory (PN-EFT) formalism for spinning gravitating bodies, we derive the next-to-leading-order (NLO) spin-orbit potential and Hamiltonian for a system of N spinning bodies in general relativity. This…
