Abstract:
We adopt the Dirac-Detweiler-Whiting radiative and regular effective field in
curved spacetime. Thereby, we derive straightforwardly the first order
perturbative correction to the geodesic of the background in a covariant form,
for the extreme mass ratio two-body problem. The correction contains the
self-force contribution and a background metric dependent term.
