Dixon's extended bodies in black hole spacetimes |
|
Abstract |
The motion of extended bodies with structure up to the mass quadrupole moment as described by Dixon's theory is discussed in Schwarzschild and Kerr spacetimes. The full set of evolution equations is solved under the simplifying assumptions of constant frame components for both the spin and the quadrupole tensors and that the center of mass moves along an equatorial circular orbit, the total 4-momentum of the body being aligned with it. Measurable effects are also investigated. |
