DESCRIPTION:Title: Gravitational positivity bounds\nby Katsuki A
oki (Waseda University) as part of Gravity @ SISSA\n\n\nAbstract\nThe desi
red properties of scattering amplitudes such as unitarity yield non-trivia
l constraints on low energy effective field theories (EFT)\, called positi
vity bounds. The bounds are clearly derived when gravity is ignored while
their extensions to include gravity are not straightforward due to a diver
gence coming from the graviton t-channel exchange. We study the validity o
f positivity bounds in the presence of a massless graviton\, assuming the
Regge behavior of the amplitude. Under this assumption\, the problematic t
-channel pole is canceled with the UV integral of the imaginary part of th
e amplitude in the dispersion relation\, which gives rise to finite correc
tions to the positivity bounds. We find that low-energy EFT with "wrong" s
ign are generically allowed. The allowed amount of the positivity violatio
n is determined by the Regge behavior. This violation is suppressed by $M_
{\\rm pl}^{-2} \\alpha'$ where $\\alpha'$ is the scale of Reggeization. Th
is implies that the positivity bounds can be applied only when the cutoff
scale of EFT is much lower than the scale of Reggeization. We then obtain
the positivity bounds on scalar-tensor EFT at one-loop level. Implications
of our results on the degenerate higher-order scalar-tensor (DHOST) theor
y are also discussed.\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: Screening of fifth forces in scalar tensor theori
es\nby Clare Burrage (University of Nottingham) as part of Gravity @ S
ISSA\n\n\nAbstract\nScalar tensor theories are of interest as possible exp
lanations for the acceleration of the expansion of the universe\, and also
as a way to understand possible modifications of gravity. However\, it is
always necessary to explain why\, if such a theory describes our universe
\, a scalar mediated fifth force has not been seen. I will discuss two pos
sible explanations for this: (1) that the underlying physical theory is sc
ale invariant and (2) that non-linearities in the theory act to suppress\,
or 'screen' the fifth force. I will focus\, in particular\, on the chall
enges encounter when trying to embed these mechanisms in effective field t

DESCRIPTION:Title: Neutron stars and screening mechanisms\nby Ra
issa F. P. Mendes (Universidade Federal Fluminense) as part of Gravity @ S
ISSA\n\n\nAbstract\nScalar-tensor theories of gravity offer an interesting
framework for cosmology\, since the new scalar degree of freedom\, when a
ctive at the largest scales in the Universe\, could help to drive its acce
lerated expansion. At the same time\, the scalar field must conceal its ef
fects in solar system scales\, where observations conform extremely well t
o general relativity. Such screening of the scalar fifth force is often de
nsity-dependent\, and models are usually tuned to general relativity for s
olar system densities and higher. In this seminar we explore the possibili
ty that screening may actually fail when densities are the highest\, namel
y\, in the core of the most compact neutron stars found in nature. We disc
uss the necessary microphysical requirements for the nuclear equation of s
tate\, as well as some properties of neutron stars with unscreened cores i
n a few interesting models.\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: Turbulent dynamos in binary neutron star mergers
\nby Daniele Viganò (Institute of Space Science CSIC) as part of Grav
ity @ SISSA\n\n\nAbstract\nOne of the most important open issue in the the
oretical understanding of binary neutron star mergers is the amplification
of magnetic fields. This happens first in a turbulent way at small scales
via Kelvin-Helmholtz instability\, and with a large-scale ordering via wi
nding and magneto-rotational instability after. However\, the numerical re
solution currently doable with the most expensive simulations (tens of mil
lions of CPU hours) is very far from capturing the scales at play (possibl
y\, fractions of meters). Here we present how a sub-grid-scale modeling of
the non-resolvable dynamics can reproduce a magnetic amplification up to
local values of 10^17 G at a much lower computational cost\, during the fi
rst 10 milliseconds after the merger. Implications for large-scale structu
res and jet formation (gamma-ray burst) are discussed.\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: Building a theory around a given spacetime\n
by Arthur G. Suvorov (University of Tübingen) as part of Gravity @ SISSA\
n\n\nAbstract\nA validation of non-Kerr parameters in astrophysical data
concerning black holes would provide compelling evidence for the break-do
wn of general relativity in the strong-field regime. Suppose we found tha
t some non-Kerr metric describes black holes\; is there a clear way that
this can be used to guide us towards the "true" theory of gravity? While
a full answer to this problem is still far away\, some recent progress ha
s been made in that an explicit solution to the inverse problem is found:
given a metric\, reconstructed from astrophysical data\, it is shown how
a theory can be built around it. The overarching family of theories redu
ces to a number of well known cases in some limits\, including scalar-ten
sor\, f(R)\, and k-essence theories. Some implications of this finding an
d other recent works are discussed.\n

ring that any time advance and superluminality calculated within the regim

DESCRIPTION:Title: Cosmology and fundamental physics with binary bl
ack-hole mergers\nby Jose Maria Ezquiaga (University of Chicago) as pa
rt of Gravity @ SISSA\n\n\nAbstract\nGravitational waves (GWs) from the fi
rst two observing runs of LIGO/Virgo have uncovered a population of stella
r-mass binary black holes (BBHs). In the first part of the talk\, I will d
iscuss the consistency of these observations with the theory of pair insta
bility supernova (PISN)\, which predicts a mass gap in the black-hole mass
spectrum in the range ~50 -120 Msun. I will then concentrate on the prosp
ects of detecting BBHs above the PISN gap. These "far side of the PISN gap
" binaries would be ideal multi-band GW sources with promising science. I
will show how far-side binaries can become standard sirens\, leave imprint
s in the stochastic GW background and might help constraining nuclear reac
tion rates. In the second part of the talk\, I will discuss the possibilit
y of identifying lensed GWs from BBHs. In particular\, I will focus on the
key role of lensing phase shifts. Contrary to electromagnetic radiation i
ntuition\, lensing phase shifts could distort the GW waveform so that it d
iffers from the (unlensed) general relativity prediction. I will quantify
how relevant these distortions are for current GW detectors and signals\,
outlining an optimal lensing search strategy. Time permitting\, I will dis
cuss tests of general relativity with lensed and unlensed GW events.\n

operties of dark matter are arguably among the most important open issues
in science. Interesting candidates for dark matter include light bosonic f
ields. Such scalar fields can give rise to confined structures\, as boson
stars or Q-balls. Boson stars are interesting hypothetical new "dark matte
r stars"\, but also good descriptions of dark matter haloes when the field
s are ultralight. In this talk\, I'm going to focus on the dynamical respo
nse of Newtonian bosonic structures when excited by external matter (stars
\, planets or black holes) in their vicinities. The study of the dynamics
of such bodies is important for a number of reasons\, ranging from stabili
ty to the way they interact with surrounding objects (stars\, planets or b
lack holes etc.). Among others issues\, I am going to describe the local c
hanges in the density of a dark matter halo triggered by the presence of a
massive black hole or a star\, the drag exerted by the bosonic clump on s
tars moving within it\, the flux of energy and momentum induced by coalesc

y Christian Wuthrich (University of Geneva) as part of Gravity @ SISSA\n\n
\nAbstract\nAnalogue experiments have attracted interest for their potenti
al to shed light on inaccessible domains. For instance\, ‘dumb holes’
in fluids and Bose–Einstein condensates\, as analogues of black holes\,
have been promoted as means of confirming the existence of Hawking radiati
on in real black holes. Contra recent claims in the literature\, I have ar
gued with Karen Crowther and Niels Linnemann (forthcoming) that analogue e
xperiments are not capable of confirming the existence of particular pheno
mena in inaccessible target systems such as astrophysical black holes. The
reason for this is that confirmation through analogue experiments suffers
from a form of circularity: they must assume the physical adequacy of the
modelling framework used to describe the inaccessible target system when
it is precisely this adequacy that is at stake. Evans and Thébault (2020)
have very recently identified four problems with our argument. I will dis
cuss and hopefully rebut their points\, but also constructively discuss th
e similarity of the case of Hawking radiation with that of stellar nucleos
ynthesis.\n

n\nAbstract\nOver the past years\, electromagnetic and gravitational obser
vations have been used to understand the nature of black holes and the mat
erial around them. Our ability to learn about the underlying physics\, how
ever\, depends heavily on our understanding of the gravity theory that des
cribes the geometry around these compact objects\, and for the electromagn
etic observations\, also on the complex astrophysics that produces the obs
erved radiation. In this talk\, I will discuss our current ability to cons
train and detect deviations from general relativity using (i) the electrom
agnetic radiation emitted by an accretion disk around a black hole\, and (
ii) the gravitational waves produced when comparable-mass black holes coll
ide\, and when a small compact object falls into a supermassive one in an
extreme mass-ratio inspiral. I will also compare the constraining capabili
ties of these two types of observations to show how current gravitational
wave observations have already placed constraints on possible modification
s to general relativity\, that are more stringent than what can be achieve
d with current and near-future electromagnetic observations.\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: How does a dark compact object ringdown?\nby
Elisa Maggio (Sapienza University of Rome) as part of Gravity @ SISSA\n\n
\nAbstract\nGravitational waves from the coalescence of compact binaries p
rovide a unique opportunity to test gravity in strong field regime. In par
ticular\, the postmerger phase of the gravitational signal is a proxy for
the nature of the remnant.\nThis is of particular interest in view of some
quantum-gravity models which predict the existence of horizonless compact
objects that overcome the paradoxes associated to black holes. Such dark
compact objects can emit a modified ringdown with respect to the black hol
e case and late-time gravitational wave echoes as characteristic fingerpri
nts.\nIn this talk\, I develop a generic framework to the study of the rin
gdown of dark compact objects and I assess their detectability with curren
t and future gravitational-wave detectors.\n

bstract\nThe detections of gravitational waves are opening a new window to
the\nUniverse. The nature of black holes and neutron stars may now be\nun
veiled\, but gravitational radiation may also lead to exciting\ndiscoverie
s of new exotic compact objects\, oblivious to electromagnetic\nwaves. In
particular\, Advanced LIGO-Virgo recently reported a short\ngravitational-
wave signal (GW190521) interpreted as a quasi-circular\nmerger of black ho
les\, one at least populating the pair-instability\nsupernova gap. We foun
d that GW190521 is also consistent with\nnumerically simulated signals fro
m head-on collisions of two (equal mass\nand spin) horizonless vector boso
n stars (aka Proca stars). This\nprovides the first demonstration of close
degeneracy between these two\ntheoretical models\, for a real gravitation
al-wave event.\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: Onset of spontaneous scalarization in generalize
d scalar-tensor theories\nby Antoine Lehébel (Instituto Superior Tecn
ico (IST)) as part of Gravity @ SISSA\n\n\nAbstract\nSpontaneous scalariza
tion is a mechanism that endows relativistic stars and black holes with a
nontrivial configuration only when their spacetime curvature exceeds some
threshold. Beyond this threshold\, they acquire a nontrivial scalar config
uration\, which also affects their structure. The onset of scalarization i
s controlled only by terms that contribute to linear perturbation around s
olutions of general relativity. I will present the complete set of these t
erms in generalized scalar-tensor theories\, and determine the relevant th
resholds in terms of the contributing coupling constants and the propertie
s of the compact object.\n

stein\nby William East (Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics) a
s part of Gravity @ SISSA\n\n\nAbstract\nGravitational wave observations o
f black hole and other compact object mergers have given us an unparallele
d way to test our understanding of gravity\, and have already been used to
constrain a number of possible deviations from general relativity. Howeve
r\, despite the success of these observations\, for many alternative theor
ies\, it is unclear how to\, or even if one can\, obtain a full theoretica
l prediction of what happens\, e.g.\, when two black holes merge. I will d
iscuss recent progress in this regard\, showing how full\, non-perturbativ
e evolutions of Horndeski theories of gravity can be carried out using a m
odified harmonic formulation. Focusing on the particular case of Einstein-
scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity as a first application\, I will present new re
sults on the dynamics of black hole scalarization and the mergers of compa
ct objects. These methods can be used to make gravitational wave predictio
ns in the strong-field regime\, and to benchmark approximate treatments of
deviations from general relativity.\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: Temperature of Black Holes in Horndeski Gravity
Theories\nby Shahin Sheikh Jabbari (Institute for Research in Fundamen
tal Sciences (IPM)) as part of Gravity @ SISSA\n\n\nAbstract\nHorndeski th
eories are the most general family of scalar-tensor gravity with second or
der equations of motion. In these theories speeds of propagation of gravi
tons and photons are in general different and gravitons move on an effect
ive metric different than the one seen by photons. These theories admit bl
ack hole solutions with the peculiar feature that they do not satisfy the
first law with the entropy given by the Wald formula. We argue that the is
sue with the first law stems from the fact that black hole temperature is
not given by the surface gravity of the black hole metric\, but with the s
urface gravity of the effective metric seen by gravitons. The modified tem
perature\, with the entropy unambiguously computed by the solution phase s
pace method\, yields the correct first law. We discuss far-reaching implic
ations of our results for black hole thermodynamics beyond the Horndeski t
heories\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: Nonlocal self-healing of Higgs inflation\nby
Anna A. Tokareva (University of Jyväskylä\, Finland) as part of Gravity
@ SISSA\n\n\nAbstract\nHiggs inflation is known to be a minimal extension
of the Standard model allowing for the description of the early Universe
inflation. This model is considered as an effective field theory since it
has a relatively low cutoff scale\, thus requiring further extensions to b
e a valid description of the reheating phase. We present a novel approach
to the problem of unitarization and UV completion of the Higgs inflation m
odel without introducing new massive degrees of freedom. This approach is
based on an analytic infinite derivative modification of the Higgs field k
inetic term. We construct a unitary non-local UV completion of the origina
l Higgs inflation model such that the inflationary stage stays stable with
respect to quantum corrections.\n

well established test of gravity. However\, little is known about how gra
vitational waves (GW) propagate beyond the simplest space-times in theorie
s beyond Einstein’s General Relativity (GR). I will present a framework
for GW lensing beyond GR at leading order in frequency. The modified causa

coalescence in Einstein-scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity\nby Felix-Louis J
ulie (Johns Hopkins University) as part of Gravity @ SISSA\n\n\nAbstract\n
In this talk I will show how to derive analytic gravitational waveforms as
sociated to the coalescence of a “hairy” black hole binary in Einstein
-scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity (ESGB). I will present the associated post-Ne
wtonian (PN) Lagrangian and gravitational wave fluxes. The PN framework re
lies on reducing the black holes to point particles with scalar-field-depe
ndent masses. In light of the first law of thermodynamics of ESGB black ho
les\, I will show that this procedure amounts to fixing their Wald entropi
es. As a consequence\, inspiraling ESGB black holes can slowly grow scalar
“hair” until they turn into naked singularities. I will then extend t
he scope of the PN approximation to the strong field regime near merger by
generalizing the Effective-One-Body (EOB) formalism to ESGB gravity.\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: Cosmological implications of electroweak vacuum
instability: constraints on the Higgs curvature coupling from inflation\nby Andreas Mantziris (Imperial College London) as part of Gravity @ SIS
SA\n\n\nAbstract\nThe current experimentally measured parameters of the St
andard Model (SM) suggest that our universe lies in a metastable electrowe
ak vacuum\, where the Higgs field could decay to a lower vacuum state with
catastrophic consequences. Our measurements dictate that such an event ha
s not happened yet\, despite the many different mechanisms that could have
triggered it during our past light-cone. Via this observation\, we can es
tablish a promising link between cosmology and particle physics and thus c
onstrain important parameters of our theories. The focus of our work has b
een to explore this possibility by calculating the probability of the fals
e vacuum to decay during the period of inflation and using it to constrain
the last unknown renormalisable SM parameter $\\xi$\, which couples the H
iggs field with space-time curvature. In our latest study\, we derived low
er bounds for the Higgs-curvature coupling from vacuum stability in three
inflationary models: quadratic and quartic chaotic inflation\, and Starobi
nsky-like power-law inflation. In contrast to most previous studies\, we t
ook the time-dependence of the Hubble rate into account both in the geomet
ry of our past light-cone and in the Higgs effective potential\, which is
approximated with three-loop renormalisation group improvement supplemente
d with one-loop curvature corrections. We find that in all three models\,
the lower bound is $\\xi \\gtrsim 0.051 ... 0.066$ depending on the top qu
ark mass. We also demonstrated that vacuum decay is most likely to happen
a few e-foldings before the end of inflation.\n

cosmological scenarios where GWs interact with another tensor field\, such
as in the theory of massive bigravity. I will illustrate explicitly how t

DESCRIPTION:Title: Constraining ultralight scalar fields around the
M87 black hole using the EHT shadow\nby Pedro Cunha (Max Planck Insti
tute) as part of Gravity @ SISSA\n\n\nAbstract\nHypothetical ultralight bo
sonic fields will spontaneously form macroscopic bosonic halos around Kerr
black holes\, via superradiance\, transferring part of the mass and angul
ar momentum of the black hole into the halo. Such a process\, however\, is
only efficient if resonant: when the Compton wavelength of the field appr
oximately matches the gravitational scale of the black hole. For a complex
-valued field\, the process can form a stationary\, bosonic field-black ho
le equilibrium state - a black hole with synchronised hair. For sufficient
ly massive black holes\, such as the one at the centre of the M87 supergia
nt elliptical galaxy\, the hairy black hole can be robust against its own
superradiant instabilities\, within a Hubble time. Studying the shadows of
such scalar hairy black holes\, we can constrain the amount of hair which
is compatible with the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) observations of the
M87 supermassive black hole\, assuming the hair is a condensate of ultrali
ght scalar particles of mass ∼1E−20 eV\, as to be dynamically viable.
We show the EHT observations set a weak constraint\, in the sense that typ
ical hairy black holes that could develop their hair dynamically\, are com
patible with the observations\, when taking into account the EHT error bar
s and the black hole mass/distance uncertainty. We will also discuss a re
cent theorem establishing that an equilibrium Black Hole must admit\, unde
r generic conditions\, at least one circular Light Ring orbit outside the
horizon. The proof relies on a topological argument and makes virtually no
assumptions on the matter content or gravity model.\n

/a>\nby Stephen Green (Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics) as
part of Gravity @ SISSA\n\n\nAbstract\nOver the past five years\, LIGO and
Virgo have published 50 detections of gravitational waves from compact bi
nary coalescences. To determine the properties of the astrophysical source
s\, Bayes’ theorem is typically combined with an iterative sampling algo
rithm such as MCMC to draw samples from the posterior—by repeatedly gene
rating waveforms and comparing to measured strain data—a process that ta
kes from hours to weeks for a single event. In this talk\, I will describe
a radically different approach\, using simulation-based inference with de
ep neural networks to learn a non-iterative surrogate model for the poster
ior. After training on simulated data\, I will show that these networks ca
n accurately analyze real binary black holes in seconds\, with results nea
rly indistinguishable from standard algorithms. This approach therefore re
presents a path to faster multimessenger alerts and a means to address the
growing rate of detections. I will conclude by discussing prospects for m

DESCRIPTION:Title: The massive black hole binary path to coalescenc
e\nby Matteo Bonetti (University of Milan Bicocca) as part of Gravity
@ SISSA\n\n\nAbstract\nMassive black hole binaries (MBHBs) are expected to
form at the centre of merging galaxies during the hierarchical assembly o
f the cosmic structure and are expected to be the loudest sources of gravi
tational waves (GWs) in the low frequency domain surveyed by the ongoing P
ulsar Timing Array (PTA) campaigns and by the forthcoming LISA observatory
.\nA meaningful assessment of the detection prospects of the above experim
ents critically depends on the abundance and properties of MBHBs that form
and evolve during the cosmic history. Therefore\, understanding the MBH d
ynamical evolution before and after these binaries form is of paramount im
portance.\nIn this talk I will review the current understanding of MBHB ev
olution by analysing the several dynamical processes driving MBHBs at diff
erent scales and highlighting possible evolutionary bottlenecks that may a
rise along their path to coalescence.\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: Frozen Axions and Global Dynamics for Newton and
Planck\nby Alexander Vikman (CEICO) as part of Gravity @ SISSA\n\n\nA
bstract\nI will discuss scale-free Einstein equations\, recently introduce
d in e-Print: 2011.07055\, where the information from their trace part is
lost. These equations are classically equivalent to General Relativity\, y
et the Newton constant becomes a constant of integration or a global dynam
ical degree of freedom. Thus\, from the point of view of standard quantiza
tion\, this effective Newton constant is susceptible to quantum fluctuatio
ns. This is similar to what happens to the cosmological constant in unimod
ular gravity where the trace part of the Einstein equations is lost in a d
ifferent way. Using analogy with the Henneaux-Teitelboim covariant action
for unimodular gravity\, we consider different general-covariant actions r
esulting in these dynamics. This setup allows one to formulate the Heisenb
erg uncertainty relations for the Newton constant and canonically conjugat
ed quantities. Interestingly\, a quasiclassical description in these globa
l theories requires a minimal level of quantum fluctuations of the Newton
constant in the same way as cosmological constant has a minimal level of q
uantum fluctuations in the unimodular gravity\, see e-Print: 2107.09601. U
nexpectedly\, one of such theories also promotes Planck's quantum constant
to a global degree of freedom\, which is subject to quantum fluctuations.
\nFollowing analogy with the unimodular gravity\, we discuss non-covarian
t "unimatter" and "unicurvature" gravities describing the scale-free Einst
ein equations. Finally\, we show that in some limit of the Yang-Mills gaug
e theory a "frozen" axion-like field can emulate not only the cosmological
constant\, but also the gravitational Newton constant or even of the quan
tum Planck constant.\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: Dark Matter via Inverse Phase Transition: going
beyond freeze-in with observable Gravitational Waves\nby Alexander Vik
man (CEICO) as part of Gravity @ SISSA\n\n\nAbstract\nI will discuss a rec
ently proposed class of models where Dark Matter (DM) is produced via an i
nverse phase transition. The inverse phase transition can be caused by cou
pling to some cosmological field. For instance\, this field can be the Ric
ci scalar\, as in e-Print: 2004.03410\; primordial magnetic field\, as in
e-Print: 2010.03383\; or thermal fluctuations of other fields\, as in e-Pr
int: 2104.13722. In this most recent work DM is modelled as a real scalar\
, which interacts with the hot primordial plasma through a portal coupling
to another scalar field. For a particular sign of the coupling\, this sys
tem exhibits an inverse phase transition. The latter leads to an abundant
DM production\, even if the portal interaction is so weak that the freeze-
in mechanism is inefficient. The model predicts domain wall formation in t
he early Universe\, long before the inverse phase transition. These domain
walls have a tension decreasing with time\, and completely disappear at t
he inverse phase transition\, so that the problem of overclosing the Unive
rse is avoided. The domain wall network emits gravitational waves with cha
racteristics defined by those of DM. In particular\, the peak frequency of
gravitational waves (GW) is determined by the portal coupling constant. F
or some range of parameters of the model these GW fall in the observable r
ange for currently planned gravitational wave detectors.\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: Some aspects of gravitational wave modelling in
general relativity and scalar-tensor theories\nby Laura Bernard (Labor
atoire Univers et Théories (LUTH)) as part of Gravity @ SISSA\n\n\nAbstra
ct\nSince the first gravitational wave (GW) detection by the LIGO-Virgo co
llaboration\, we have now detected more than fifty GW signals from compact
binary systems (made of black hole or neutron stars). In the future\, the
LISA space-based interferometer and the next generation detectors\, such
as the Einstein Telescope\, will allow to test our gravitational paradigm
with an unprecedented precision. One of the new challenge to analysis the
forthcoming huge amount of data resides in the high precision modelling of
GWs both in general relativity (GR) and beyond. In this talk\, I will foc
us on the post-Newtonian method that is used to describe the inspiral phas
e of the coalescence of compact binary systems. After reviewing the multip
olar - post Minkowskian - post Newtonian formalism and the state-of-the-ar
t in GR\, I will explain how such a formalism can be simply applied to sca
lar- tensor theories of gravity. In particular\, I will focus on the main
phenomenological differences from GR and present the latest developments\,
including the contribution from the scalar dipolar tidal effect.\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: Three-body problem in General Relativity\nby
Adrien Kuntz (Scuola Normale Superiore) as part of Gravity @ SISSA\n\nLec
ture held in 132.\n\nAbstract\nThree-body systems are very common in the u
niverse and it is likely that future gravitational-wave detectors will det
ect them and measure their parameters. I will introduce a new approach ("E
ffective Two-Body") perturbatively solving the motion of hierarchical thre
e-body systems by relying on the existence of two expansion parameters: sm
all velocities and large separation of the third body. I will show how thi
s new EFT formulation allows to compute the relativistic Hamiltonian of th
ree-body systems order-by-order\, and I will present some applications to
long-term evolution of three-body systems and waveform modelling.\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: Observational signatures of isotropically emitti
ng sources orbiting bosonic stars\nby Joao Rosa (Tartu University) as
part of Gravity @ SISSA\n\nLecture held in 138.\n\nAbstract\nPushed by a n
umber of advances\, electromagnetic observatories have now reached the hor
izon scale of supermassive black holes. The existence and properties of ho
rizons in our universe is one of the outstanding fundamental issues that c
an now be addressed. Here we investigate the ability to discriminate betwe
en black holes and compact\, horizonless objects\, focusing on the lensing
of hot spots and accretion disks around compact objects. We work in parti
cular with boson and Proca stars as central objects\, and show that the ab
sence of a horizon gives rise to a characteristic feature -- photons that
plough through the central object and produce an extra image. This feature
should be universal for central objects made of matter weakly coupled to
the standard model.\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: A recipe for detecting the gravitational-wave ba
ckground with pulsar timing arrays\nby Boris Goncharov (Gran Sasso Sci
ence Institute (GSSI)) as part of Gravity @ SISSA\n\nLecture held in 138.\
n\nAbstract\nWhen galaxies merge\, supermassive black holes at their centr
es form binaries. The binaries that are brought together to separations be
low ~ 0.1 parsec are expected to experience an adiabatic inspiral dominate
d by gravitational wave emission. The detection of these signals is a prim
ary goal of pulsar timing arrays (PTA). These experiments observe millisec
ond pulsars that act as very precise clocks scattered around our galaxy. I
t is expected that the stochastic superposition of supermassive black hole
binaries will form a background signal that will be detected prior to ind
ividually-resolved sources. Interestingly\, PTAs might now be seeing a spa
tially-uncorrelated component of the gravitational-wave background. This i
s to be confirmed or ruled out in the near future based on a better handle
on spatial correlations of the signal. In this talk\, I will outline the
main ingredients necessary to detect the gravitational-wave background\, t
he flavors it may have\, and the new science it may bring to the table.\n
