    • Fast plunges into Kerr black holes 

      Hadar, Shahar; Porfyriadis, Achilleas; Strominger, Andrew E. (Springer Nature, 2015)
      Most extreme-mass-ratio-inspirals of small compact objects into supermassive black holes end with a fast plunge from an eccentric last stable orbit. For rapidly rotating black holes such fast plunges may be studied in the ...

    • Gravity waves from extreme-mass-ratio plunges into Kerr black holes 

      Hadar, Shahar; Porfyriadis, Achilleas; Strominger, Andrew E. (American Physical Society (APS), 2014)
      Massive objects orbiting a near-extreme Kerr black hole quickly plunge into the horizon after passing the innermost stable circular orbit. The plunge trajectory is shown to be related by a conformal map to a circular orbit. ...
