Gravitational radiation reaction along general orbits in the effective one-body formalism
We derive the gravitational radiation-reaction force modifying the Effective One Body description of the conservative dynamics of binary systems. Our result is applicable to general orbits (elliptic or hyperbolic) and keeps terms of fractional second post-Newtonian order (but does not include tail effects). Our derivation of radiation-reaction is based on …
