contents Using the worldline effective field theory formalism, we derive the nonlocal-in-time conservative contributions arising from tail effects in gravitational scattering to fifth Post-Minkowskian (5PM) and tenth self-force (10SF) orders. The result features multiple polylogarithms of up to weight three. This challenging computation relies on state-of-the-art integration techniques, including a novel integration-by-parts algorithm: the Sparse Integral Reducer (SpideR). We find perfect agreement in the overlap with all existing literature through sixth post-Newtonian order. The results presented here provide a key ingredient for isolating the local-in-time component of the conservative two-body dynamics of binary inspirals at 5PM order.
