Using our previous work we give a tropical formula for disk potentials for Lagrangian tori in almost toric four-manifolds, that is, fibrations by Lagrangian tori with only toric and focus-focus singularities, generalizing results of…
The class of tidal features around galaxies known variously as "shells" or "umbrellas" comprises debris that has arisen from high-mass-ratio mergers with low impact parameter; the nearly radial orbits of the debris give rise to a unique…
The gravitational self-force on a point particle moving in a vacuum background spacetime can be expressed as an integral over the past worldline of the particle, the so-called tail term. In this paper, we consider that piece of the…

The dynamic shift of the center of mass for a rotating hemisphere prompts us the question of what might be its physical consequences. Despite the fact that accelerating object is known to create gravitational field, there is no known…
The self-force acting on a (scalar or electric) charge held in place outside a massive body contains information about the body's composition, and can therefore be used as a probe of internal structure. We explore this theme by computing…

We solve the Schr\"odinger-Newton problem of Newtonian gravity coupled to a nonrelativistic scalar particle for solutions with axial symmetry. The gravitational potential is driven by a mass density assumed to be proportional to the…
We investigate the gravitational potentials generated by axisymmetric, razor-thin disks. Within certain limitations, the potential on one side of the disk is shown to be equivalent to the potential produced by a linear mass distribution…
