Post-Minkowskian self-force in the low-velocity limit: scalar field scattering

Post-Minkowskian self-force in the low-velocity limit: scalar field scattering

In this paper we present an approach to compute analytical post-Minkowskian corrections to unbound two-body scattering in the self-force formalism. Our method relies on a further low-velocity (post-Newtonian) expansion of the motion. We present a general strategy valid for gravitational and non-gravitational self-force, and we explicitly demonstrate our approach for …
