Calculations of the scatter angle in hyperbolic black hole encounters have been of recent cross-disciplinary interest, driven by its potential to advance post-Minkowskian theory and the effective-one-body model of binary dynamics. In this talk I will consider the self-force approach to modelling black hole scattering, starting with a general introduction to self-force theory. I will then...

I will present the full NLO scattering waveform computed from the observable based formalism. The waveform satisfies the universal soft theorem up to the NNLO. I will end the talk by comparing the result with that computed from the Multipolar-Post-Minkowskian formalism, which requires a rotation of the incoming center-of-mass frame to align with that at the minimal approach.

I will discuss our recent calculations of the observables (impulse, spin kick, scattering angle) involved in the scattering of two black holes or neutron stars at fourth post Minkowskian order (three-loop order) using the Worldline Quantum Field Theory (WQFT) framework. These 4PM observables now include both spin-orbit and adiabatic tidal corrections — inclusion of the latter necessitates a...

In Dixon's original papers on the Mathisson–Papapetrou–Dixon worldline equations of motion for extended bodies in general relativity, he found the unique definition for the multipole moments of the stress tensor for a body in general motion in curved spacetime. This definition coincides only with the stationary multipole moments of the body which are determined by the three-point amplitude...
