By taking a gauge in which ψ_(1)^(B) and ψ_(3)^(B) vanish, we find a decoupled equation with separable variables for ψ_(4)^(B) in the effective metric obtained in the post-Minkowskian approximation. Furthermore, we set up a new self-consistent effective one-body theory for spinless binaries, which can be applicable to any post-Minkowskian orders. This theory not only releases the assumption that v/c should be a small quantity but also resolves the contradiction that the Hamiltonian, radiation-reaction force, and waveform are constructed from different physical models in the effective one-body theory with the post-Newtonian approximation. Compared with our previous theory [Sci. China-Phys. Mech. Astron. 65, 260411(2022)], the computational effort for the radiation-reaction force and waveform in this new theory will be tremendously reduced.展开更多
