Kavli Affiliate: Scott A. Hughes | First 5 Authors: Scott A. Hughes, , , , | Summary: Adiabatic binary inspiral in the small mass ratio limit treats the small body as moving along a geodesic of a large Kerr black hole, with the geodesic slowly evolving due to radiative backreaction. Up to initial conditions, geodesics […]
