Hamiltonians from the Stress-Energy Tensor — •Jan Steinhoff, Steven Hergt, and Gerhard Schäfer — Theoretisch-Physikalisches Institut, Friedrich-Schiller-Universität, Max-Wien-Platz 1, 07743 Jena, Germany

We show how Hamiltonians for spinning black holes can be derived from the stress-energy tensor. The Hamiltonians fits into the canonical formalism of Arnowitt, Deser, and Misner and are given in their transverse-traceless gauge. All post-Newtonian next-to-leading order spin effects up to quadratic order in spin for binary black holes are presented in Hamiltonian form.
