Strong-field tidal distortions of rotating black holes: Formalism and results for circular, equatorial orbits
Tidal coupling between members of a compact binary system can have an interesting and important influence on that binary’s dynamical inspiral. Tidal coupling also distorts the binary’s members, changing them (at lowest order) from spheres to ellipsoids. At least in the limit of fluid bodies and Newt...
