Speaker

Prof. Johannes Bluemlein (DESY)

Description

Using effective field theory methods, we calculate the 5PN
potential corrections to the binary black hole system, also
including the tail terms, except the purely rational terms of
O(\nu^2). Comparisons are made with the literature. The
contributions of O(\pi^2 \nu^2) are calculated for the first
time. We provide the Hamiltonian for harmonic coordinates
and calculate the binding energy and periastron advance.
We also present the 6PN potential contributions up to G_N^4.
