Observables related to the real part of the gravitational eikonal, such as the deflection angle and time delay, have been found so far to have a smooth post-Minkowskian (PM) expansion whose validity extends from the non-relativistic to the most extreme ultra-relativistic (UR) regime, which smoothly connects with massless particle collisions. To describe gravitational radiation, the eikonal phase has to be promoted to a unitary operator for which we motivate a proposal and start discussing properties in the soft-radiation limit. A convergent PM expansion is found to only hold below an UR bound (discussed in the GR literature in the seventies) above which a different expansion is instead needed implying, in general, some non-analyticity in Newton's constant. In this extreme UR regime soft radiative observables receive contributions only from gravitons and are therefore universal. This generalises the pattern discussed in \cite{DiVecchia:2020ymx} beyond the elastic case.

Radiation-Reaction and Angular Momentum Loss at $\mathcal{O}(G^4)$
A closed-form, all-velocity expression for the O(G^4) radiated angular momentum in two-body gravitational scattering is derived, resumming all half-odd post-Newtonian corrections.

"Waveforms" at the Horizon
A probe scattering off a Schwarzschild black hole transfers a definite leading-order post-Minkowskian angular momentum to the horizon, given by new closed formulas (3.24b), (3.29), (3.36).

One-Loop Observables to Higher Order in Spin
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.

On-shell approach to scalar hair in spinning binaries
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.

Classical Observables from Causal Response Functions
Asymptotic in-in observables are computed from a soft limit of five-point causal response functions, reproducing KMOC results and resolving the radiated angular momentum ambiguity in scalar QED.

Lorentz Covariant Supertranslation Frames for the Angular Momentum Aspect
Angular momentum in GR is made unambiguous by fixing supertranslation frames through the center-of-mass condition J_{\mu\nu}P^\nu=0, extended covariantly to the final state via P^i_\mu P^f_\nu J^{f\mu\nu}=0.

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