Title: Effective Field Theory Approach to Binary Systems in Scalar-Tensor Theories
Abstract: Theories beyond General Relativity typically contain at least one additional scalar degree of freedom, effectively mediating an additional force. While this force must be highly suppressed in low-density environments--to pass current constraints--it generically leads to deviations from General Relativity in high-density / high-curvature environments, such as neutron stars and black holes, and thus impacts their [...]
