Extreme-mass-ratio inspirals consist of binary systems of compact objects, with orders of magnitude differences in their masses, in the regime where the dynamics are driven by gravitational wave emission. The unique nature of extreme-mass-ratio inspirals facilitates the exploration of diverse and stimulating tests related to various aspects of black holes and General Relativity. These tests encompass investigations into the spacetime geometry, the dissipation of the binary system energy and angular momentum, and the impact of the intrinsic non-linear effects of the gravitational interaction. This review accounts for the manifold opportunities for testing General Relativity, ranging from examinations of black hole properties to cosmological and multimessenger tests.

  1. QPEs from Warped Disk Collisions with EMRIs: Brightness-Recurrence Diagram and Gravitational-Wave Follow-up

    astro-ph.HE 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    A warped-disk EMRI collision model reproduces QPE patterns in GSN 069 via a new Brightness-Recurrence Diagram and predicts possible LISA detection for a retrograde stellar-mass black hole secondary.

  2. Resonances as signatures of scalar clouds in eccentric extreme-mass-ratio inspirals

    gr-qc 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Eccentricity in EMRIs around scalar clouds produces relativistic resonances in scalar fluxes near the last stable orbit, leading to observable dephasing in gravitational waveforms.

  3. The significance of first post-adiabatic contributions for scalar charge measurements with intermediate and extreme mass ratio inspirals

    gr-qc 2026-07 accept novelty 6.5

    Neglecting 1PA gravitational self-force biases intrinsic EMRI parameters while scalar-charge inference remains robust; pure-GR templates produce large biases and underestimated errors on charged signals.

  4. Resonances as signatures of scalar clouds in eccentric extreme-mass-ratio inspirals

    gr-qc 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Eccentric EMRIs exhibit relativistic resonances in scalar fluxes that enhance interactions with scalar clouds and amplify waveform dephasing relative to circular orbits.

  5. Probing near-zone magnetic fields with extreme mass-ratio inspirals

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0

    A magnetized Schwarzschild background shifts EMRI orbital dynamics and GW waveforms, with B~10^9 G producing ~1.3 rad dephasing over one year for a 10^6 M_sun system.

  6. Massive scalar fields in eccentric regime: Detectability and constraints from LISA observations of extreme mass-ratio inspirals

    gr-qc 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Computes scalar and tensor fluxes for eccentric EMRIs with massive scalars, quantifies dephasing, and shows via Fisher matrix that LISA can constrain scalar charge and mass.

  7. Periodic orbits as probes of charged loop quantum gravity black holes through gravitational waves

    gr-qc 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Periodic orbits in charged LQG black holes produce zoom-whirl gravitational waveforms detectable by future space-based observatories, with features depending on the fixed polymerization parameter.

  8. Parameter-estimation bias induced by transient orbital resonances in extreme-mass-ratio inspirals

    gr-qc 2026-04 conditional novelty 5.0

    For most studied EMRI orbits, omitting 3:2, 2:1, 4:3, or 3:1 resonance crossings causes significant SNR loss and Fisher biases exceeding 1σ, with coefficient signs and amplitudes controlling the effect.

  9. Parameter-estimation bias induced by transient orbital resonances in extreme-mass-ratio inspirals

    gr-qc 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Neglecting transient orbital resonances in EMRIs causes significant SNR losses and biases in recovered parameters, with the sign and amplitude of resonance-induced changes to integrals of motion being critical.

    gr-qc 2025-07 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    A multi-parameter formalism is developed to describe asymmetric binaries in general matter distributions by perturbing around Schwarzschild and reducing metric and fluid perturbations to wave equations similar to the ...

  11. Probing Active Galactic Nuclei and Measuring the Hubble constant with Extreme-Mass-Ratio Inspirals

    gr-qc 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Modeling accretion disk interactions with EMRIs allows reliable environment identification and boosts dark-siren Hubble constant precision by as much as 20% for individual events.
