How well is the vacuum Kerr geometry a good description of the dark, compact objects in our universe? Precision measurements of accreting matter in the deep infrared and gravitational-wave measurements of coalescing objects are finally providing answers to this question. Here, we study the possibility of resonant excitation of the modes of the central object -- taken to be very compact but horizonless -- during an extreme-mass-ratio inspiral. We show that for very compact objects resonances are indeed excited. However, the impact of such excitation on the phase of the gravitational-wave signal is negligible, since resonances are crossed very quickly during inspiral.

Gravitational waves from b-EMRIs: Doppler shift and beaming, resonant excitation, helicity oscillations and self-lensing
A first-principles Teukolsky model of a binary extreme-mass-ratio inspiral shows Doppler modulation, beaming, self-lensing, helicity-dependent scattering, and SMBH ringdown resonances in the waveform.

Macroscopic backreaction of the trace anomaly on classical vacuum backgrounds
Order-reduced backreaction of the trace-anomaly RSET on Schwarzschild gives a naked singularity without compensatory terms and a wormhole throat with them.

Extreme mass ratio inspirals around topological stars
A scalar charge orbiting a topological star produces fluxes that deviate from the black hole case and can dephase by up to 10^4 radians over a year, while QNM resonances are too narrow to be observable.
