We present a new approach to factorize and resum the post-Newtonian (PN) waveform for generic equatorial motion to be used within effective-one-body (EOB) based waveform models. The new multipolar waveform factorization improves previous…
We study the orbital evolution of a radiation-damped binary in the extreme mass ratio limit, and the resulting waveforms, to one order beyond what can be obtained using the conservation laws approach. The equations of motion are solved…
Detection of gravitational waves from compact binaries involving at least one intermediate mass black hole, and component mass ratios in the range $0.1$-$10^{-4}$, are among the primary sources for future space detectors with target strain…
Extreme mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs), consisting of a secondary (stellar mass) black hole (BH) orbiting around a supermassive BH, are one of the primary targets for future spaceborne gravitational wave (GW) detectors. The spin of the…
The largest part of any gravitational-wave inspiral of a compact binary can be understood as a slow, adiabatic drift between the trajectories of a certain referential conservative system. In many contexts, the phase space of this…
We describe progress evolving an important limit of binary orbits in general relativity, that of a stellar mass compact object gradually spiraling into a much larger, massive black hole. These systems are of great interest for gravitational…
The inspirals of compact objects into massive black holes are some of the most exciting of the potential sources of gravitational waves for the planned Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA). Observations of such extreme mass ratio…
We introduce \TEOBiResumSM{}, an improved version of the effective-one-body (EOB) waveform model \TEOBResumS{} for spin-aligned, coalescing black hole binaries, that includes subdominant gravitational waveform modes completed through merger…
Supermassive black holes and their surrounding dense stellar environments nourish a variety of astrophysical phenomena. We focus on the distribution of stellar-mass black holes around the supermassive black hole and the consequent formation…
The Effective-One-Body (EOB) formalism contains several flexibility parameters, notably $a_5$, $\vp$ and $\a$. We show here how to jointly constrain the values of these parameters by simultaneously best-fitting the EOB waveform to two,…
The gravitational capture of a stellar-mass object by a supermassive black hole represents a unique probe of warped spacetime. The small object, typically a stellar-mass black hole, describes a very large number of cycles before crossing…
The low-energy effective action of String Theory introduces corrections to the dilaton-graviton sector, resulting in deformed black holes beyond general relativity. We analyze extreme mass-ratio inspiral systems (EMRIs), where a…
We study binary systems in which a stellar mass compact object spirals into a massive black hole, known as extreme mass ratio inspirals, in scenarios with a new fundamental scalar field. Earlier work has shown that, in most interesting such…
We study slowly rotating black hole solutions in the Einstein-Bel-Robinson gravity (EBR) in four dimensions. At the leading order in the rotation parameter, the only modification with respect to the static case is the appearance of a…
Using an analytic, static, and spherically symmetric metric for a Schwarzschild black hole immersed in a dark matter (DM) halo with the Hernquist-type profile, we derive analytic expressions for the orbital period and precession of…
Compact remnants on orbits with peri-apses close to the Schwarzschild radius of a massive black hole (MBH) lose orbital energy by emitting gravitational waves (GWs) and spiral in. Scattering with other stars allows successful inspiral of…
Extreme mass ratio inspirals (EMRIs), as a core target for future space-based gravitational wave detection, offer crucial observational grounds for testing strong-field gravitational theories and classifying black holes through their…
We present {bhpwave}: a new Python-based, open-source tool for generating the gravitational waveforms of stellar-mass compact objects undergoing quasi-circular inspirals into rotating massive black holes. These binaries, known as…
We perform the first fully nonlinear numerical simulations of black-hole binaries with mass ratios 100:1. Our technique for evolving such extreme mass ratios is based on the moving puncture approach with a new gauge condition and an optimal…
In this work, we develop the modified Teukolsky formalism that describes the GW radiation from a point mass orbiting around a perturbed Schwarzschild BH. This perturbation of the background spacetime induces a secular change in the orbital…
