Transition from inspiral to plunge in binary black hole coalescences
read the original abstract
Combining recent techniques giving non-perturbative re-summed estimates of the damping and conservative parts of the two-body dynamics, we describe the transition between the adiabatic phase and the plunge, in coalescing binary black holes with comparable masses moving on quasi-circular orbits. We give initial dynamical data for numerical relativity investigations, with a fraction of an orbit left, and provide, for data analysis purposes, an estimate of the gravitational wave-form emitted throughout the inspiral, plunge and coalescence phases.

Trapping, Irregular Waveforms, and Efficient Radiation in Ultra-relativistic Black Hole Encounters
Ultra-relativistic black hole flybys can radiate over 65% of their energy in gravitational waves via irregular waveforms caused by radiation trapping and lensing, without coalescence.

Highly eccentric non-spinning binary black hole mergers: quadrupolar post-merger waveforms
Polynomial models for the (2,2) post-merger waveform amplitudes of eccentric non-spinning binary black holes are constructed from numerical-relativity data as functions of symmetric mass ratio and two merger-time dyna...

A Runway to Dissipation of Angular Momentum via Worldline Quantum Field Theory
The authors introduce static correlators in worldline QFT to compute angular momentum dissipation in black hole scattering, reproducing the known O(G^3) flux and extending the approach to electromagnetism at O(α^3).
