New effective precession spin for modeling multimodal gravitational waveforms in the strong-field regime
Lucy M. Thomas, Patricia Schmidt, Geraint Pratten
Accurately modelling the complete gravitational-wave signal from precessing binary black holes through the late inspiral, merger and ringdown remains a challenging problem. The lac…
A generalized precession parameter to interpret gravitational-wave data
Davide Gerosa, Matthew Mould, Daria Gangardt +3
Originally designed for waveform approximants, the effective precession parameter is the most commonly used quantity to characterize spin-precession effects in gravi…
Measuring precession in asymmetric compact binaries
Geraint Pratten, Patricia Schmidt, Riccardo Buscicchio +1
Gravitational-wave observations of merging compact binaries hold the key to precision measurements of the objects' masses and spins. General-relativistic precession, caused by spin…
