We find that the quantum of gravity, the graviton, has time-varying mass (the gomidium), and radius (the somium); both vary with the inverse of R; and its frequency is given by Hubble's parameter. Dark matter can be made of such gravitons.…
Gravitational perturbations of neutron stars and black holes are well known sources of gravitational radiation. If the compact object is immersed in or endowed with a magnetic field, the gravitational perturbations would couple to…

The Einstein-Maxwell theory has black hole solutions with electric and magnetic charges. In the standard model for particle physics, dyons with electric and magnetic charges would have been formed in the early universe. We derive the…

A gravitational bound state, called a Macro Holeum, is created from a very large number of microscopic black holes of primordial or a non-primordial origin. All of them undergo orbital motion, under the action of gravity, around their…
Black holes in our Universe are rarely truly isolated, being instead embedded in astrophysical environments such as plasma or dark matter. A particularly intriguing possibility is that light scalar fields form bound states around black…
Gravitational radiation is locally defined where the wavefronts are roughly spherical. A local energy tensor is defined for the gravitational radiation. Including this energy tensor as a source in the truncated Einstein equations describes…

Black holes can be electromagnetically charged, or carry vector charge from new fundamental fields. Their response to small fluctuations is of paramount importance to study gravitational wave generation. However, the usual even and odd…
We derive the energy fluxes radiated by compact binary systems, including "hairy" black holes, in Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton theories, for circular orbits and at quadrupolar order. This enables to include in their resummed effective-one-body…

We investigate generation of electromagnetic radiation by gravitational waves interacting with a strong magnetic field in the vicinity of a vibrating Schwarzschild black hole. Such an effect may play an important role in gamma-ray bursts…

It is still an open issue if astrophysical black holes have electric charges or not. In this work, we analytically calculate gravitational and electromagnetic waveforms in the frequency domain for charged black hole binaries during the…
Neutron stars and black holes are the most compact astrophysical objects we can think of and as a consequence they are the main sources of gravitational waves. There are many astrophysically relevant scenarios in which these objects are…
Minuscule primordial black holes before the end and after inflation can serve as "time capsules" bringing back energy from the past to a later epoch when they evaporate. As these black holes behave like matter, while the rest of the…
We present the derivation and the solutions to the coupled electromagnetic and gravitational perturbations with sources in a charged black hole background. We work in the so called ghost gauge and consider as source of the perturbations the…
