Most extreme-mass-ratio-inspirals of small compact objects into supermassive black holes end with a fast plunge from an eccentric last stable orbit. For rapidly rotating black holes such fast plunges may be studied in the context of the Kerr/CFT correspondence because they occur in the near-horizon region where dynamics are governed by the infinite dimensional conformal symmetry. In this paper we use conformal transformations to analytically solve for the radiation emitted from fast plunges into near-extreme Kerr black holes. We find perfect agreement between the gravity and CFT computations.

Massive objects orbiting a near-extreme Kerr black hole quickly plunge into the horizon after passing the innermost stable circular orbit. The plunge trajectory is shown to be related by a conformal map to a circular orbit. Conformal symmetry of the
near-horizon region is then used to compute the gravitational radiation produced during the plunge phase.
We compute the albedo (or reflectivity) of electromagnetic waves off the electron-positron Hawking plasma that surrounds the horizon of a Quantum Black Hole. We adopt the modified firewall conjecture for fuzzballs [arXiv:hep-th/0502050,arXiv:1711.016
17], where we consider significant electromagnetic interaction around the horizon. While prior work has treated this problem as an electron-photon scattering process, we find that the incoming quanta interact collectively with the fermionic excitations of the Hawking plasma at low energies. We derive this via two different methods: one using relativistic plasma dispersion relation, and another using the one-loop correction to photon propagator. Both methods find that the reflectivity of long wavelength photons off the Hawking plasma is significant, contrary to previous claims. This leads to the enhancement of the electromagnetic albedo for frequencies comparable to the Hawking temperature of black hole horizons in vacuum. We comment on possible observable consequences of this effect.
We argue that near-future detections of gravitational waves from merging black hole binaries can test a long-standing proposal, originally due Bekenstein and Mukhanov, that the areas of black hole horizons are quantized in integer multiples of the Pl
anck area times an $mathcal O(1)$ dimensionless constant $alpha$. This condition quantizes the frequency of radiation that can be absorbed or emitted by a black hole. If this quantization applies to the ring down gravitational radiation emitted immediately after a black hole merger, a single measurement consistent with the predictions of classical general relativity would rule out most or all (depending on the spin of the hole) of the extant proposals in the literature for the value of $alpha$. A measurement of two such events for final black holes with substantially different spins would rule out the proposal for any $alpha$. If the modification of general relativity is confined to the near-horizon region within the holes light ring and does not affect the initial ring down signal, a detection of echoes with characteristic properties could still confirm the proposal.
The use of modern effective field theory techniques has sparked significant developments in many areas of physics, including the study of gravity. Case in point, such techniques have recently been used to show that binary black holes can amplify inci
dent, low-frequency radiation due to an interplay between absorption at the horizons and momentum transfer in the bulk of the spacetime. In this paper, we further examine the consequences of this superradiant mechanism on the dynamics of an ambient scalar field by taking the binarys long-range gravitational potential into account at the nonperturbative level. Doing so allows us to capture the formation of scalar clouds that are gravitationally bound to the binary. If the scalar is light enough, the cloud can be sufficiently diffuse (i.e., dilute while having considerable spatial extent) that it engulfs the binary as a whole. Its subsequent evolution exhibits an immensely rich phenomenology, which includes exponential growth, beating patterns, and the upscattering of bound states into scalar waves. While we find that these effects have negligible influence on the binarys inspiral in the regime wherein our approximations are valid, they offer new, analytic insight into how binary black holes interact with external perturbations. They may also provide useful, qualitative intuition for interpreting the results from future numerical simulations of these complex systems.
Dynamics in the throat of rapidly rotating Kerr black holes is governed by an emergent near-horizon conformal symmetry. The throat contains unstable circular orbits at radii extending from the ISCO down to the light ring. We show that they are relate
d by conformal transformations to physical plunges and osculating trajectories. These orbits have angular momentum arbitrarily higher than that of ISCO. Using the conformal symmetry we compute analytically the radiation produced by the physical orbits. We also present a simple formula for the full self-force on such trajectories in terms of the self-force on circular orbits.
