Tidal Dynamics in Kerr Spacetime
read the original abstract
The motion of free nearby test particles relative to a stable equatorial circular geodesic orbit about a Kerr source is investigated. It is shown that the nonlinear generalized Jacobi equation can be transformed in this case to an autonomous form. Tidal dynamics beyond the critical speed c/sqrt(2) is studied. We show, in particular, that a free test particle vertically launched from the circular orbit parallel or antiparallel to the Kerr rotation axis is tidally accelerated if its initial relative speed exceeds c/sqrt(2). Possible applications of our results to high-energy astrophysics are briefly mentioned.

Geodesic deviation to all orders via a tangent bundle formalism
A tangent-bundle flow formalism yields an explicit all-orders formula for the Jacobi propagators in geodesic deviation, with the Lagrangian and equation of motion given explicitly up to tenth order.
