Extreme mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs), comprising a stellar-mass compact object (CO) orbiting a supermassive black hole (BH), are key targets for future space-based gravitational-wave (GW) observatories. Incorporating the spin of the…
Space-based gravitational wave detectors based on the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) design operate by synthesizing one or more interferometers from fringe velocity measurements generated by changes in the light travel time…
An Extreme Mass Ratio Inspiral (EMRI), which corresponds to a small compact object inspirals around a massive black hole in the center of a galaxy, is one of the most important sources for future space-borne gravitational-wave (GW)…
Many gravitational wave (GW) sources in the LISA band are expected to have non-negligible eccentricity. Furthermore, many of them can undergo acceleration because they reside in the presence of a tertiary. Here we develop analytical and…
Extreme-mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs) carry valuable information about their surrounding astrophysical environments. Over the course of their long-term evolution, interactions between the secondary object and the accretion disk can produce…
Gravitational wave experiments will play a key role in the investigation of the frontiers of cosmology and the structure of fundamental fields at high energies, by detecting, or setting strong upper-limits to, the primordial gravitational…
An outstanding prediction of general relativity is the fact that the angular momentum $S$ of an isolated black hole with mass $\mu$ is limited by the Kerr bound, $S\leq G\mu^2/c$. Testing this cornerstone is challenging due to the…
The extreme-mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs) are emerging as precision laboratories for testing the gravity beyond general relativity. In this work, we investigate the Lorentz symmetry breaking (LSB) effect induced by the Kalb-Ramond (KR) field…
Gravitational waves from inspiraling sub-solar mass compact objects would provide almost definitive evidence for the existence of primordial black holes. In this chapter, we explain why these exotic objects are interesting candidates for…
Extreme-mass-ratio inspirals will be prized sources for the upcoming space-based gravitational-wave observatory LISA. The hunt for these is beset by many open theoretical and computational problems in both source modeling and data analysis.…
The gravitational-wave (GW) inspirals of stellar-mass compact objects onto a supermassive black hole (MBH), are some of the most promising GW sources detectable by next-generation space-born GW-detectors. The rates and characteristics of…
In this article we give a brief review of the fundamental physics that can be done with the future space-based gravitational wave detector LISA. This includes detection of gravitational wave bursts coming from cosmic strings, measuring a…
We consider a potentially new class of gravitational wave sources consisting of a white dwarf coalescing into a massive black hole in the mass range ~10^4-10^5\msun. These sources are of particular interest because the gravitational wave…
Extremely large mass-ratio inspirals (XMRIs), formed by brown dwarfs inspiraling into a massive black hole, emit gravitational waves (GWs) that fall within the detection band of future space-borne detectors such as LISA, TianQin, and Taiji.…
The gravitational wave signal from a compact object spiralling toward a massive black hole (MBH) is thought to be one of the most difficult sources to detect in the LISA data stream. Due to the large parameter space of possible signals and…
Inspirals of stellar-mass compact objects into $\sim 10^6 M_{\odot}$ black holes are especially interesting sources of gravitational waves for LISA. We investigate whether the emitted waveforms can be used to strongly constrain the geometry…
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…
We develop the first model for extreme mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs) with misaligned angular momentum and primary spin, and zero eccentricity -- also known as quasi-spherical inspirals -- evolving under the influence of the first-order in…
Accurate modeling of gravitational-wave signals is essential for reliable inference of compact-binary source parameters, particularly for future space-based detectors operating in the milli- and deci-Hertz bands. In this work, we…
Extreme-mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs) will be key sources for LISA. However, accurately extracting system parameters from a detected EMRI waveform will require self-force calculations at second order in perturbation theory, which are still…
