Deviations from general relativity can alter the quasinormal mode (QNM) ringdown of perturbed black holes. It is known that a shift-symmetric (hence massless) scalar can only introduce black hole hair if it couples to the Gauss-Bonnet invariant, in w...

Measuring scalar charge with compact binaries: High accuracy modeling with self-force (2024)
Journal Article
Spiers, A., Maselli, A., & Sotiriou, T. P. (2024). Measuring scalar charge with compact binaries: High accuracy modeling with self-force. Physical Review D, 109(6), Article 064022. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.109.064022

Using the self-force approach, we present the premier first-post-adiabatic accuracy formalism for modeling compact binaries in theories with a massless scalar field nonminimally coupled to gravity. We limit the binary secondary to being a non-spinnin... Read More about Measuring scalar charge with compact binaries: High accuracy modeling with self-force.
