The proposal is divided into two broad streams. The first stream is concerned with the physics of black holes in tidal environments. What happens to a black hole when it is not isolated, but placed in the presence of other bodies which exert tidal forces on it? To answer this question requires a description of the tidal environment, a computation of the gravitational perturbation created by the external bodies, and the extraction of physical, measurable consequences. Among the most exciting of those consequences is the prospect of measuring the effect of the tidal coupling in gravitational waves, a measurement that would allow a black hole to be observationally distinguished from other types of compact bodies. I have initiated this line of investigation in 2004, and I propose to extend it in many different directions during the next granting cycle.

该提案分为两个宽流。第一个流与潮汐环境中黑洞的物理学有关。当黑洞不隔离时，会发生什么，而将其放置在其他物体的存在下？要回答这个问题，需要描述潮汐环境，外部身体产生的重力扰动的计算以及提取物理，可测量的后果。在这些后果中，最令人兴奋的是测量引力波中潮汐耦合的效果的前景，这种测量可以使黑洞与其他类型的紧凑型物体有所区别。我在2004年开始了这一调查，我建议在下一个授予周期中将其扩展到许多不同的方向。
