We obtain the quadratic-in-spin terms of the conservative Hamiltonian describing the interactions of a binary of spinning bodies in General Relativity through $\mathcal{O}(G^2)$ and to all orders in velocity. Our calculation extends a recently-introduced framework based on scattering amplitudes and effective field theory to consider non-minimal coupling of the spinning objects to gravity. At the order that we consider, we establish the validity of the formula proposed in \cite{Bern:2020buy} that relates the impulse and spin kick in a scattering event to the eikonal phase.

    Generalized Carter and Rüdiger constants for spinning charged probes in √Kerr backgrounds exist only for Wilson coefficients matching spin-exponentiated effective Compton amplitudes up to second order in spin.

  2. Hidden simplicity in the scattering for neutron stars and black holes

    Authors define Kerr generating functions for all-loop scattering on Kerr black holes and apply them to compute leading non-linear tidal effects of neutron stars up to four loops in gravity.

  3. Gravitational multipoles from scattering amplitudes in higher dimensions

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    In five dimensions, minimally coupled massive vector and antisymmetric tensor fields produce only mass or stress quadrupoles respectively from scattering amplitudes, failing to match the Myers-Perry black hole and dem...

  4. Unexpected Symmetries of Kerr Black Hole Scattering

    hep-th 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    The work establishes conservation of several quantities in Kerr black hole scattering and presents evidence that a spinning probe satisfies asymptotic integrability to quartic spin order at all post-Minkowskian orders.
