A reformulation of the Barrabes-Israel null-shell formalism
Eric Poisson
We consider a situation in which two metrics are joined at a null hypersurface. It often occurs that the union of the two metrics gives rise to a Ricci tensor that contains a term…
An introduction to the Lorentz-Dirac equation
Eric Poisson
These notes provide two derivations of the Lorentz-Dirac equation. The first is patterned after Landau and Lifshitz and is based on the observation that the half-retarded minus hal…
Gravitational waves from inspiraling compact binaries: Accuracy of the post-Newtonian waveforms
Eric Poisson
The accuracy of the post-Newtonian waveforms, both in standard and Pade form, is determined by computing their matched-filtering overlap integral with a reference waveform obtained…
Can LIGO see compact binaries?
Serge Droz, Eric Poisson
The probability that interferometric detectors such as LIGO and VIRGO will successfully detect inspiraling compact binaries depends in part on our knowledge of the expected gravita…
Black-hole interiors and strong cosmic censorship
Eric Poisson
Strong cosmic censorship holds that given suitable initial data on a spacelike hypersurface, the laws of general relativity should determine, completely and uniquely, the future ev…
Gravitational waves from coalescing compact binaries
Eric Poisson
This article is intended to provide a pedagogical account of issues related to, and recent work on, gravitational waves from coalescing compact binaries (composed of neutron stars…
