The spectral curve of quasinormal modes for a massive real scalar field in the background of a non-conformal black brane geometry has been obtained by utilizing a Frobenius type near-horizon expansion. The gauge/gravity duality maps this to…

Self-gravitating bodies can have an arbitrarily complex shape, which implies a much richer multipolar structure than that of a black hole in General Relativity. With this motivation, we study the corrections to the dynamics of a binary…
