Three-Hair Relations for Rotating Stars: Nonrelativistic Limit
Leo C. Stein, Kent Yagi, Nicolas Yunes
The gravitational field outside of astrophysical black holes is completely described by their mass and spin frequency, as expressed by the no-hair theorems. These theorems assume v…
Gravitational self-torque and spin precession in compact binaries
Sam R. Dolan, Niels Warburton, Abraham I. Harte +3
We calculate the effect of self-interaction on the "geodetic" spin precession of a compact body in a strong-field orbit around a black hole. Specifically, we consider the spin prec…
Stability of nonspinning effective-one-body model in approximating two-body dynamics and gravitational-wave emission
Yi Pan, Alessandra Buonanno, Andrea Taracchini +7
The detection of gravitational waves and the extraction of physical information from them requires the prediction of accurate waveforms to be used in template banks. For that purpo…
Effective-one-body model for black-hole binaries with generic mass ratios and spins
Andrea Taracchini, Alessandra Buonanno, Yi Pan +11
Gravitational waves emitted by black-hole binary systems have the highest signal-to-noise ratio in LIGO and Virgo detectors when black-hole spins are aligned with the orbital angul…
Applying the effective-source approach to frequency-domain self-force calculations
Niels Warburton, Barry Wardell
The equations of motion of a point particle interacting with its own field are defined in terms of a certain regularized self-field. Two of the leading methods for computing this r…
Template Banks for Binary black hole searches with Numerical Relativity waveforms
Prayush Kumar, Ilana MacDonald, Duncan A. Brown +8
Gravitational waves (GW) from coalescing stellar-mass black hole binaries (BBH) are expected to be detected by the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory and…
Parametrizing and constraining scalar corrections to general relativity
Leo C. Stein, Kent Yagi
We parametrize a large class of corrections to general relativity which include a long-ranged gravitational scalar field as a dynamical degree of freedom in two ways: parametrizing…
Comparing Gravitational Waveform Extrapolation to Cauchy-Characteristic Extraction in Binary Black Hole Simulations
Nicholas W. Taylor, Michael Boyle, Christian Reisswig +4
We extract gravitational waveforms from numerical simulations of black hole binaries computed using the Spectral Einstein Code. We compare two extraction methods: direct constructi…
Periastron advance in spinning black hole binaries: comparing effective-one-body and Numerical Relativity
Tanja Hinderer, Alessandra Buonanno, Abdul H. Mroué +8
We compute the periastron advance using the effective-one-body formalism for binary black holes moving on quasi-circular orbits and having spins collinear with the orbital angular…
Periastron Advance in Spinning Black Hole Binaries: Gravitational Self-Force from Numerical Relativity
Alexandre Le Tiec, Alessandra Buonanno, Abdul H. Mroué +8
We study the general relativistic periastron advance in spinning black hole binaries on quasi-circular orbits, with spins aligned or anti-aligned with the orbital angular momentum,…
First direct comparison of non-disrupting neutron star-black hole and binary black hole merger simulations
Francois Foucart, Luisa Buchman, Matthew D. Duez +7
We present the first direct comparison of numerical simulations of neutron star-black hole and black hole-black hole mergers in full general relativity. We focus on a configuration…
Inspiral-merger-ringdown waveforms of spinning, precessing black-hole binaries in the effective-one-body formalism
Yi Pan, Alessandra Buonanno, Andrea Taracchini +5
We describe a general procedure to generate spinning, precessing waveforms that include inspiral, merger and ringdown stages in the effective-one-body (EOB) approach. The procedure…
Error-analysis and comparison to analytical models of numerical waveforms produced by the NRAR Collaboration
Ian Hinder, Alessandra Buonanno, Michael Boyle +53
The Numerical-Relativity-Analytical-Relativity (NRAR) collaboration is a joint effort between members of the numerical relativity, analytical relativity and gravitational-wave data…
Final spin and radiated energy in numerical simulations of binary black holes with equal masses and equal, aligned or anti-aligned spins
Daniel A. Hemberger, Geoffrey Lovelace, Thomas J. Loredo +5
The behavior of merging black holes (including the emitted gravitational waves and the properties of the remnant) can currently be computed only by numerical simulations. This pape…
Precession-tracking coordinates for simulations of compact-object-binaries
Serguei Ossokine, Lawrence E. Kidder, Harald P. Pfeiffer
Binary black hole simulations with black hole excision using spectral methods require a coordinate transformation into a co-rotating coordinate system where the black holes are ess…
A catalog of 174 binary black-hole simulations for gravitational-wave astronomy
Abdul H. Mroue, Mark A. Scheel, Bela Szilagyi +14
This paper presents a publicly available catalog of 174 numerical binary black-hole simulations following up to 35 orbits. The catalog includes 91 precessing binaries, mass ratios…
Prospects for Observing and Localizing Gravitational-Wave Transients with Advanced LIGO, Advanced Virgo and KAGRA
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1319
We present our current best estimate of the plausible observing scenarios for the Advanced LIGO, Advanced Virgo and KAGRA gravitational-wave detectors over the next several years,…
Nilpotence and the generalized uncertainty principle(s)
Nikos Kalogeropoulos
We point out that some of the proposed generalized/modified uncertainty principles originate from solvable, or nilpotent at appropriate limits, "deformations" of Lie algebras. We b…
Massive disk formation in the tidal disruption of a neutron star by a nearly extremal black hole
Geoffrey Lovelace, Matthew D. Duez, Francois Foucart +4
Black hole-neutron star (BHNS) binaries are important sources of gravitational waves for second-generation interferometers, and BHNS mergers are also a proposed engine for short, h…
Angular velocity of gravitational radiation from precessing binaries and the corotating frame
Michael Boyle
This paper defines an angular velocity for time-dependent functions on the sphere, and applies it to gravitational waveforms from compact binaries. Because it is geometrically mean…

Kent Yagi, Leo C. Stein, Nicolas Yunes +1
We study isolated and binary neutron stars in dynamical Chern-Simons gravity. This theory modifies the Einstein-Hilbert action through the introduction of a dynamical scalar field…
