We present a numerical code for calculating the self force on a scalar charge moving in a bound (eccentric) geodesic in the equatorial plane of a Kerr black hole. We work in the frequency domain and make use of the method of extended…
We present a calculation of the scalar field self-force (SSF) acting on a scalar-charge particle in a strong-field orbit around a Kerr black hole. Our calculation specializes to circular and equatorial geodesic orbits. The analysis is an…
We present a practical method for calculating the gravitational self-force, as well as the electromagnetic and scalar self forces, for a particle in a generic orbit around a Kerr black hole. In particular, we provide the values of all the…
This is the second in a series of papers aimed at developing a practical time-domain method for self-force calculations in Kerr spacetime. The key elements of the method are (i) removal of a singular part of the perturbation field with a…
We calculate the self-force acting on a particle with scalar charge moving on a generic geodesic around a Schwarzschild black hole. This calculation requires an accurate computation of the retarded scalar field produced by the moving…
We calculate the self-force acting on a charged particle on a circular geodesic orbit in the equatorial plane of a rotating black hole. We show by direct calculation that the dissipative self-force balances with the sum of the flux radiated…
This paper presents the first calculation of the gravitational self-force on a small compact object on an eccentric equatorial orbit around a Kerr black hole to first order in the mass-ratio. That is the pointwise correction to the object's…
We present a new, simple method for calculating the scalar, electromagnetic, and gravitational self forces acting on particles in orbit around a Kerr black hole. The standard ``mode-sum regularization'' approach for self-force calculations…
In this work we present the first calculation of the gravitational self-force on generic bound geodesics in Kerr spacetime to first order in the mass-ratio. That is, the local correction to equations of motion for a compact object orbiting…
If a small "particle" of mass $\mu M$ (with $\mu \ll 1$) orbits a black hole of mass $M$, the leading-order radiation-reaction effect is an $\mathcal{O}(\mu^2)$ "self-force" acting on the particle, with a corresponding $\mathcal{O}(\mu)$…
We numerically calculate the dissipative part of the self-force on a scalar charge moving on a circular, geodesic, equatorial orbit in Kerr spacetime. The solution to the scalar field equation is computed by separating variables and is…
A scalar charged particle moving in a curved background spacetime will emit a field affecting its own motion; the resolving of this resulting motion is often referred to as the self-force problem. This also serves as a toy model for the…
We present a method for calculating the self-force (the ``radiation reaction force'') acting on a charged particle moving in a strong field orbit in black hole spacetime. In this approach, one first calculates the contribution to the…
Recently, we proposed a method for calculating the ``radiation reaction'' self-force exerted on a charged particle moving in a strong field orbit in a black hole spacetime. In this approach, one first calculates the contribution to the…
We revisit the problem of computing the self-force on a scalar charge moving along an eccentric geodesic orbit around a Schwarzschild black hole. This work extends previous scalar self-force calculations for circular orbits, which were…
This review is concerned with the gravitational self-force acting on a mass particle in orbit around a large black hole. Renewed interest in this old problem is driven by the prospects of detecting gravitational waves from strongly…
We present a new method for calculation of the gravitational self-force (GSF) in Kerr geometry, based on a time-domain reconstruction of the metric perturbation from curvature scalars. In this approach, the GSF is computed directly from a…
Using self-force methods, we consider the hyperbolic-type scattering of a pointlike particle carrying a scalar charge $Q$ off a Schwarzschild black hole. For given initial velocity and impact parameter, back-reaction from the scalar field…
The foundations are laid for the numerical computation of the actual worldline for a particle orbiting a black hole and emitting gravitational waves. The essential practicalities of this computation are here illustrated for a scalar…
We present a new method designed to avoid numerical challenges that have impeded calculation of the Lorenz gauge self-force acting on a compact object inspiraling into a Kerr black hole. This type of calculation is valuable in creating…
