Analytic determination of high-order post-Newtonian self-force contributions to gravitational spin precession

Abstract
Continuing our analytic computation of the first-order self-force contribution to the "geodetic" spin precession frequency of a small spinning body orbiting a large (nonspinning) body, we provide the exact expressions of the 10 and 10.5 post-Newtonian terms. We also introduce a new approach to the analytic computation of self-force regularization parameters based on a WKB analysis of the radial and angular equations satisfied by the metric perturbations.
