We present a practical method for calculating the gravitational self-force, as well as the electromagnetic and scalar self forces, for a particle in a generic orbit around a Kerr black hole. In particular, we provide the values of all the regularization parameters needed for implementing the (previously introduced) {\it mode-sum regularization} method. We also address the gauge-regularization problem, as well as a few other issues involved in the calculation of gravitational radiation-reaction in Kerr spacetime.

  1. Metric reconstruction and the Hamiltonian for eccentric, precessing binaries in the small-mass-ratio limit

    gr-qc 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    First-order metric perturbations and the generalized redshift invariant are computed for eccentric, precessing orbits in Kerr spacetime using four metric reconstruction methods, with open-source code provided.
