Intermediate-mass-ratio Inspirals with General Dynamical Friction in Dark Matter Minispikes

Intermediate-mass-ratio inspirals (IMRIs) may be surrounded by dark matter (DM) minispikes. The dynamical friction from these DM minispike structures can affect the dynamics and the gravitational-wave (GW) emission of the IMRIs. We analyze the effects of general dynamical friction, with a particular...
