Relativistic precession around rotating neutron stars: Effects due to frame-dragging and stellar oblateness
General relativity predicts that a rotating body produces a frame-dragging (or LenseThirring) effect: the orbital plane of a test particle in a non-equatorial orbit precesses about the body’s symmetry axis. In this paper we compute the precession frequencies of circular orbits around rapidly rotating neutron stars for a variety of masses and equations of state. The precession frequencies comput...
متن کاملFinal spins from the merger of precessing binary black holes
The inspiral of binary black holes is governed by gravitational radiation reaction at binary separations r & 1000M, yet it is too computationally expensive to begin numerical-relativity simulations with initial separations r * 10M. Fortunately, binary evolution between these separations is well described by postNewtonian equations of motion. We examine how this post-Newtonian evolution affects ...

We review some recent works on the post-Newtonian theory of slowly-moving (post-Newtonian) sources, and its application to the problems of dynamics and gravitational radiation from compact binary systems. Our current knowledge is 3PN on the center-of-mass energy and 3.5PN on the gravitational-wave flux of inspiralling compact bi-naries. We compute the innermost circular orbit (ICO) of binary bl...
متن کاملA simple model for accretion disks in the post-Newtonian approximation
p { margin-bottom: 0.1in; direction: ltr; line-height: 120%; text-align: left; }a:link { } In this paper, the evolution of accretion disks in the post-Newtonian limit has been investigated. These disks are formed around gravitational compact objects such as black holes, neutron stars, or white dwarfs. Although most analytical researches have been conducted in this context in the framework o...
متن کاملCoupling Between the Spin and Gravitational Field and the Equation of Motion of the Spin
In general relativity, the equation of motion of the spin is given by the equation of parallel transport, which is a result of the space-time geometry. Any result of the space-time geometry can not be directly applied to gauge theory of gravity. In gauge theory of gravity, based on the viewpoint of the coupling between the spin and gravitational field, an equation of motion of the spin is deduc...
