Radiation reaction at 3.5 post-Newtonian order in effective field theory
We derive the radiation reaction forces on a compact binary inspiral through 3.5 order in the postNewtonian expansion using the effective field theory approach. We utilize a recent formulation of Hamilton’s variational principle that rigorously extends the usual Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formalisms to dissipative systems, including the inspiral of a compact binary from the emission of gravitat...
متن کاملNon-uniqueness of the third post-Newtonian binary point-mass dynamics
It is shown that the recently found non-uniqueness of the third post-Newtonian binary point-mass ADM-Hamiltonian is related to the non-uniqueness at the third post-Newtonian approximation of the applied ADM-coordinate conditions. PACS number(s): 04.25.Nx, 04.30.Db, 97.60.Jd, 97.60.Lf In a recent paper [1] the authors reported on the non-uniqueness of the 3rd post-Newtonian ADM-Hamiltonian for b...
متن کاملThird post-Newtonian constrained canonical dynamics for binary point masses in harmonic coordinates
1550-7998=20 The conservative dynamics of two point masses given in harmonic coordinates up to the third postNewtonian order is treated within the framework of constrained canonical dynamics. A representation of the approximate Poincaré algebra is constructed with the aid of Dirac brackets. Uniqueness of the generators of the Poincaré group or the integrals of motion is achieved by imposing the...
متن کاملInnermost circular orbit of binary black holes at the third post-Newtonian approximation
The equations of motion of two point masses have recently been derived at the 3PN approximation of general relativity. From that work we determine the location of the innermost circular orbit or ICO, defined by the minimum of the binary’s 3PN energy as a function of the orbital frequency for circular orbits. We find that the post-Newtonian series converges well for equal masses. Spin effects ap...
متن کاملEquations of motion of compact binaries at the third post - Newtonian order ∗
Abstract. The equations of motion of two point masses in harmonic coordinates are derived through the third post-Newtonian (3PN) approximation. The problem of self-field regularization (necessary for removing the divergent self-field of point particles) is dealt with in two separate steps. In a first step the extended Hadamard regularization is applied, resulting in equations of motion which ar...
