Description

Following the discussion of how to calculate the self-force on scattering orbits, I will discuss the applications of the results of these simulations. This starts with results from scalar self-force scattering, including radiated and absorbed fluxes, a resummation of post-Minkowskian that improves the faithfulness to the numerical results across the whole parameter space, and the use of scalar self-force information to perform self-consistent evolution in Numerical Relativity. I will continue by discussing the steps required to perform the first calculations of the gravitational self-force on a scattering orbit and present new results of the gravitational self-force radiated and absorbed fluxes.
