Modeling <strong>of</strong> IMRI/EMRIs<br />

What about IMRIs Given that <strong>the</strong> mass ratio is not as small<br />

as in EMRIs, can we also rely on perturbation <strong>the</strong>ory<br />

Factors that we may become very important with respect to<br />

EMRI <strong>modeling</strong>:<br />

Non-linearities (higher-order perturbative terms).<br />

Spin <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> small component <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> binary.<br />

Physical Consequences <strong>of</strong> this additional effects:<br />
