We transform the metric of an isolated matter source in the multipolar post-Minkowskian approximation from harmonic (de Donder) coordinates to radiative Newman-Unti (NU) coordinates. To linearized order, we obtain the NU metric as a functional of the mass and current multipole moments of the source, valid all-over the exterior region of the source. Imposing appropriate boundary conditions we recover the generalized Bondi-van der Burg-Metzner-Sachs residual symmetry group. To quadratic order, in the case of the mass-quadrupole interaction, we determine the contributions of gravitational-wave tails in the NU metric, and prove that the expansion of the metric in terms of the radius is regular to all orders. The mass and angular momentum aspects, as well as the Bondi shear, are read off from the metric. They are given by the radiative quadrupole moment including the tail terms.

We compute the effect of scattering gravitational radiation off the static background curvature, up to second order in Newton constant, known in literature as tail and tail-of-tail processes, for generic electric and magnetic multipoles. Starting fro
m the multipole expansion of composite compact objects, and as expected due to the known electric quadrupole case, both long- and short-distance (UV) divergences are encountered. The former disappears from properly defined observables, the latter are renormalized and their associated logarithms give rise to a classical renormalization group flow. UV divergences alert for incompleteness of the multipolar description of the composite source, and are expected not to be present in a UV-complete theory, as explicitly derived in literature for the case of conservative dynamics. Logarithmic terms from tail-of-tail processes associated to generic magnetic multipoles are computed in this work for the first time.
To perform realistic tests of theories of gravity, we need to be able to look beyond general relativity and evaluate the consistency of alternative theories with observational data from, especially, gravitational wave detections using, for example, a
n agnostic Bayesian approach. In this paper we further examine properties of one class of such viable, alternative theories, based on metrics arising from ungauged supergravity. In particular, we examine the massless, neutral, minimally coupled scalar wave equation in a general stationary, axisymmetric background metric such as that of a charged rotating black hole, when the scalar field is either time independent or in the low-frequency, near-zone limit, with a view to calculating the Love numbers of tidal perturbations, and of obtaining harmonic coordinates for the background metric. For a four-parameter family of charged asymptotically flat rotating black hole solutions of ungauged supergravity theory known as STU black holes, which includes Kaluza-Klein black holes and the Kerr-Sen black hole as special cases, we find that all time-independent solutions, and hence the harmonic coordinates of the metrics, are identical to those of the Kerr solution. In the low-frequency limit we find the scalar fields exhibit the same $SL(2,R)$ symmetry as holds in the case of the Kerr solution. We point out extensions of our results to a wider class of metrics, which includes solutions of Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton theory.
The estimation of gravitational radiations multipole moments is a central problem in gravitational wave theory, with essential applications in gravitational wave signal modeling and data analysis. This problem is complicated by most astrophysically r
elevant systems not having angular modes that are analytically understood. A ubiquitous workaround is to use spin weighted spherical harmonics to estimate multipole moments; however, these are only related to the natural modes of non-spinning spacetimes, thus obscuring the behavior of radiative modes when the source has angular momentum. In such cases, radiative modes are spheroidal in nature. Here, common approaches to the estimation of spheroidal harmonic multipole moments are unified under a simple framework. This framework leads to a new class of spin weighted spheroidal harmonic functions. Adjoint-spheroidal harmonics are introduced and used to motivate the general estimation of spheroidal harmonic multipole moments via bi-orthogonal decomposition with overtone subsets. In turn, the adjoint-spheroidal harmonics are used to construct a single linear operator for which all spheroidal harmonics are eigenfunctions. Implications of these results on gravitational wave theory are discussed.
We provide a prescription to compute the gravitational multipole moments of compact objects for asymptotically de Sitter spacetimes. Our prescription builds upon a recent definition of the gravitational multipole moments in terms of Noether charges a
ssociated to specific vector fields, within the residual harmonic gauge, dubbed multipole symmetries. We first derive the multipole symmetries for spacetimes which are asymptotically de Sitter; we also show that these symmetry vector fields eliminate the non-propagating degrees of freedom from the linearized gravitational wave equation in a suitable gauge. We then apply our prescription to the Kerr-de Sitter black hole and compute its multipole structure. Our result recovers the Geroch-Hansen moments of the Kerr black hole in the limit of vanishing cosmological constant.
The direct detection of gravitational waves crowns decades of efforts in the modelling of sources and of increasing detectors sensitivity. With future third-generation Earth-based detectors or space-based observatories, gravitational-wave astronomy w
ill be at its full bloom. Previously brushed-aside questions on environmental or other systematic effects in the generation and propagation of gravitational waves are now begging for a systematic treatment. Here, we study how electromagnetic and gravitational radiation is scattered by a binary system. Scattering cross-sections, resonances and the effect of an impinging wave on a gravitational-bound binary are worked out for the first time. The ratio between the scattered-wave amplitude and the incident wave can be of order $10^{-5}$ for known pulsars, bringing this into the realm of future gravitational-wave observatories. For currently realistic distribution of compact-object binaries, the interaction cross-section is too small to be of relevance.
