Post-Newtonian expansion of gravitational waves from a particle in   circular orbit around a Schwarzschild black hole
  Based upon the formalism recently developed by one of us (MS), we analytically perform the post-Newtonian expansion of gravitational waves from a test particle in circular orbit of radius $r_0$ around a Schwarzschild black hole of mass $M$. We calculate gravitational wave forms and luminosity up to $v^8$ order beyond Newtonian, where $v=(M/r_0)^{1/2}$. In particular, we give the exact analytical values of the coefficients of $\ln v$ terms at $v^6$ and $v^8$ orders in the luminosity and confirm the numerical values obtained previously by the other of us (HT) and Nakamura. Our result is valid in the small mass limit of one body and gives an important guideline for the gravitational wave physics of coalescing compact binaries.
