Post-geodesic corrections to the self-force during EMRIs
ORAL
Abstract
We quantified how past orbital behavior affects the self-force during an extreme mass-ratio inspiral. We expanded the metric to first order in the mass ratio using black hole perturbation theory, and used a two-timescale expansion of the Regge-Wheeler equation to access non-geodesic corrections to the metric perturbation. The asymptotic coefficients of higher order terms in the two-timescale expansion provide energy and angular momentum fluxes, which we used to calculate post-geodesic self-force corrections. We present preliminary results demonstrating the verified asymptotic coefficients and corrections to the self-force.
