Driven by advances in scattering amplitudes and worldline-based methods, recent years have seen significant progress in our ability to calculate gravitational two-body scattering observables. These observables effectively encapsulate the gravitational two-body problem in the weak-field and high-velocity regime (post-Minkowskian, PM), with applications to the bound two-body problem and gravitational-wave modeling. We leverage PM data to construct a complete inspiral-merger-ringdown waveform model for non-precessing spinning black holes within the effective-one-body (EOB) formalism: SEOBNR-PM. This model is closely based on the highly successful SEOBNRv5 model, used by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration, with its key new feature being an EOB Hamiltonian derived by matching the two-body scattering angle in a perturbative PM expansion. The model performs remarkably well, showing a median mismatch against 441 numerical-relativity (NR) simulations that is somewhat lower than a similarly calibrated version of SEOBNRv5. Comparisons of the binding energy with NR also demonstrate better agreement than SEOBNRv5, despite the latter containing additional calibration to NR simulations.

  1. Spinning bodies in general relativity from bosonic worldline oscillators

    hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A bosonic-oscillator worldline action for spinning compact bodies in general relativity is constructed, and it reproduces known post-Minkowskian scattering results while remaining valid to all orders in spin.

  2. Resummed energy loss in extreme-mass-ratio scattering using critical orbits

    gr-qc 2026-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Near-separatrix logarithmic divergence, anchored by fitted unstable-circular-orbit fluxes, yields resummed formulas for energy loss in extreme-mass-ratio scattering that track exact numerical calculations to about 10-25%.

  3. One-Loop Observables to Higher Order in Spin

    hep-th 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    New one-loop formulas express the momentum impulse and spin kick of two scattered spinning bodies directly in terms of the eikonal phase, valid to all orders in spin and independent of the spin supplementary condition.

  4. On-shell approach to scalar hair in spinning binaries

    hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Scalar hair on spinning compact objects is described by a conformal coupling of matter to a massless scalar, yielding matching waveforms and energy loss formulas for scalar-tensor gravity binaries.

  5. Strong Field Scattering of Black Holes: Assessing Resummation Strategies

    gr-qc 2024-11 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    High-energy equal-mass black hole scattering data show that L-resummation, weob, and SEOB-PM models all develop pathological behavior, with NR-calibrated pseudo-5PM corrections and Padé-resummed EOB potentials offerin...
