The dynamical degree of freedom in Einstein’s Gravity propagates the space-time as gravity waves. When linearized, we have a wave equation of the metric perturbation.

g = gbackground + h + O(h2)

Detection of gravitational waves is a strong evidence of the dynamical nature of the gravitational theory.

Einstein Gravity predicts a very strongly self-gravitating object, called “Black hole”.

Newtonian Gravity :

It makes a singularity if gravitationally collapsed.

Einstein Gravity :

The singularity is hidden by the horizon.

Suppose we could use a linear perturbation: We approximate the supermassive black hole by a Kerr black hole, and consider the linear metric perturbation induced by an inspiralling compact object.

One can calculate the gravitational waveform by a linear perturbation, being given a orbit.

We need to solve the orbital equation.

MiSaTaQuWaFVd

D

A binary system is known to emit gravitational waves, and the gravitational waves carry away the binding energy of the system. As a result, the orbit deviates from the background geodesic.

MiSaTaQuWa self-force was derived by a linear perturbation. It is considered to include the radiation reaction effect to the orbit.

Do we have to consider the self-force in a certain gauge? Is the orbital evolution gauge-dependent?

16

Astrophysics Seminar at University of Florida, Gainesville, Sept. 24, 2004

Self-Force in Radiation Reaction Formula

One may choose a gauge condition such that the self-force vanishes, and it is consistent with the linear perturbation!

1) The linear perturbation is derived by solving the linearized Einstein equation.

0 T

2) The linearized Einstein equation requires the conservation law in the background, i.e. a geodesic.

17

3) The linear approximation is valid only when the orbital deviation from a geodesic is small.

x

Note: Gauge is a freedom to assign the coordinates to a perturbed geometry. It has nothing to do with the causality or hyperbolicity of the Einstein equation.

4) Because the orbital deviation from a geodesic is small, one can bring the orbit’s coordinates back to those of the geodesic.

18

Conclusion:There is no self-force.

Problem:We have to extend “the linear perturbation formalism” so that it can describe the metric perturbation induced by a non-geodesic orbit.

Conclusion: MiSaTaQuWa self-force makes no physically meaningful prediction of the orbital evolution by itself.

3: Adiabatic Metric Perturbation

We consider a quasi non-linear extension of the linear metric perturbation so that one can describe the metric perturbation induced by a non-geodesic orbit.

For this, we use 1) a physically reasonable class of gauge conditions,2) the picture of adiabatic approximation.

The adiabatic approximation is well known in classical mechanics, but, the application to a classical gauge field is not well known.

4: Radiation Reaction Formula

Radiation Reaction Formula was originally formulated by a linear perturbation in the physically reasonable gauge.(Strictly speaking, all the formula so far is based on the linear perturbation, and we cannot make any physical interpretation.)

For a meaningful discussion of the orbital evolution, we have to consider the adiabatic extension of Radiation reaction formula in a manner consistent with the adiabatic metric perturbation.

We call this gauge condition the radiation reaction gauge.

In this gauge, the self-force has only the dissipative term. This DOES NOT mean that the self-force does not have conservative terms. The conservative effect of the self-force is renormalized into the initial conditions.

6: Conclusion

A method for an orbital prediction using a linear metric perturbation is established for the first time.

The method can predict the orbital evolution for long enough for LISA project.

The calculation technique of the method proposed here is already established and the required computational power is minimum.

Coding to calculate the waveform is in progress.
