The two-body problem exhibits a clear separation of scales: The size of the compact objects, the orbital separation and the gravitational wavelength, all controlled by the same expansion parameter. This approach is a way of organizing systemastic expansions in powers of ratios of scales. We describe how to "integrate out" physics at each of the scales to obtain a theory with well defined rules for calculating observables. A possible extension of this idea to formulate the compact object formation in this framework is discussed.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div></div><br class="">-------------------------------------------------<br class=""><a href="mailto:okc-wp4@albanova.se" class="">okc-wp4@albanova.se</a> mailing list</div></blockquote></div><br class=""></div></div><br class="">-------------------------------------------------<br class=""><a href="mailto:okc-wp4@albanova.se" class="">okc-wp4@albanova.se</a> mailing list</div></blockquote></div><br class=""></body></html>
