Using the method of multiple scales, one can derive an analytic solution that describes the behaviour of weakly coupled, non-linear oscillations in nearly Keplerian discs around neutron stars or black holes close to the 3:2 orbital epicyclic resonance. The solution obtained agrees with the previous numerical simulation. Such result may be relevant to the kilohertz quasi-periodic variability in X-ray fluxes observed in many Galactic black hole and neutron star sources. With a particular choice of tunable parameters, the solution fits accurately the observational data for Sco X-1.

  1. The macroscopic precession model of quasi-periodic oscillations for rotating compact objects

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    Treating QPO-emitting disk clumps as spinning test bodies reproduces the observed twin kHz QPOs without the effective de Sitter term, with fits preferring n≈2 thin-disk structures for Schwarzschild and n≈1 for Kerr.

  2. The relativistic restricted three-body problem: geometry and motion around tidally perturbed black holes

    gr-qc 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Increasing tidal deformation around a black hole drives bound geodesics through weak chaos, plunging, unbinding, and eventual depletion of all bound motion, with semi-analytic critical amplitudes for each transition.

  3. Probing the nature of Einstein nonlinear Maxwell Yukawa black hole through gravitational wave forms from periodic orbits and quasiperiodic oscillations

    gr-qc 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Gravitational waveforms from periodic orbits and QPOs around ENLMY black holes are derived and used with MCMC to constrain the Yukawa parameter and charge for microquasars and the galactic center.
