Stars near the Galactic center reach a few percent of light speed during pericenter passage, which makes post-Newtonian effects potentially detectable. We formulate the orbit equations in Hamiltonian form such that the $O(v^2/c^2)$ and…

We compute the gravitational impulse for two classical massive scalars in the ultrarelativistic limit to all orders in Newton's constant $G_N$ at fixed $G_N s/m b$ to $O(m^4/s^2)$. By computing the 4 and 5-point scattering amplitudes in the…

The Schr\"odinger-Newton model describes self-gravitating quantum particles, and it is often cited to explain the gravitational collapse of the wave function and the localization of macroscopic objects. However, this model is completely…

We introduce a covariant Multipole Expansion for the scattering of a massive particle emitting photons or gravitons in $D$ dimensions. We find that these amplitudes exhibit very powerful features such as universality, soft exponentiation,…
