We study solutions to the Dirac equation in Minkowski space $\mathbb{R}^{1,d+1}$ that transform as $d$-dimensional conformal primary spinors under the Lorentz group $SO(1,d+1)$. Such solutions are parameterized by a point in $\mathbb{R}^d$…

Recent progress in gravitational self-force theory has led to the development of a first post-adiabatic (1PA) waveform model for nonspinning, quasicircular compact binaries [Phys. Rev. Lett. 130, 241402 (2023)]. In this paper, we extend…

We present analytical and numerical progress on black-hole binary spin precession at second post-Newtonian order using multi-timescale methods. In addition to the commonly used effective spin which acts as a constant of motion, we exploit…
