Searching for Gravitational Waves from the Inspiral of Precessing Binary Systems: New Hierarchical Scheme using "Spiky" Templates
P. Grandclement, V. Kalogera
In a recent investigation of the effects of precession on the anticipated detection of gravitational-wave inspiral signals from compact object binaries with moderate total masses,…
Searching for Gravitational Waves from the Inspiral of Precessing Binary Systems: Problems with Current Waveforms
P. Grandclement, V. Kalogera, A. Vecchio
We consider the problem of searching for gravitational waves emitted during the inspiral phase of binary systems when the orbital plane precesses due to relativistic spin-orbit cou…
Circular orbits of corotating binary black holes: comparison between analytical and numerical results
T. Damour, E. Gourgoulhon, P. Grandclement
We compare recent numerical results, obtained within a ``helical Killing vector'' (HKV) approach, on circular orbits of corotating binary black holes to the analytical predictions…
Last orbits of binary black holes
Eric Gourgoulhon, Philippe Grandclement, Silvano Bonazzola
Binary black hole systems in the pre-coalescence stage are numerically constructed by demanding that the associated spacetime admits a helical Killing vector. Comparison with third…
Measuring Neutron Star Radii with Gravitational Wave Detectors
Joshua A. Faber, Philippe Grandclement, Frederic A. Rasio +1
Coalescing binary neutron stars (NS) are expected to be an important source of gravitational waves (GW) detectable by laser interferometers. We present here a simple method for det…
