A comprehensive look into the accuracy of SpEC binary black hole waveforms
Taylor Knapp, Katerina Chatziioannou, Keefe Mitman +4
Numerical relativity simulations provide a full description of the dynamics of binary systems, including gravitational radiation. The waveforms produced by these simulations have a…
The SXS Collaboration's third catalog of binary black hole simulations
Mark A. Scheel, Michael Boyle, Keefe Mitman +56
We present a major update to the Simulating eXtreme Spacetimes (SXS) Collaboration's catalog of binary black hole simulations. Using highly efficient spectral methods implemented i…
Black hole spectroscopy: from theory to experiment
Emanuele Berti, Vitor Cardoso, Gregorio Carullo +65
The "ringdown" radiation emitted by oscillating black holes has great scientific potential. By carefully predicting the frequencies and amplitudes of black hole quasinormal modes a…
GWSurrogate: A Python package for gravitational wave surrogate models
Scott E. Field, Vijay Varma, Jonathan Blackman +9
Fast and accurate waveform models are fundamentally important to modern gravitational wave astrophysics, enabling the study of merging compact objects like black holes and neutron…
Modeling the BMS transformation induced by a binary black hole merger
Guido Da Re, Keefe Mitman, Leo C. Stein +12
Understanding the characteristics of the remnant black hole formed in a binary black hole merger is crucial for conducting gravitational wave astronomy. Typically, models of remnan…
Probing the ringdown perturbation in binary black hole coalescences with an improved quasi-normal mode extraction algorithm
Keefe Mitman, Isabella Pretto, Harrison Siegel +9
Using gravitational waves to probe the geometry of the ringing remnant black hole formed in a binary black hole coalescence is a well-established way to test Einstein's theory of g…
Length dependence of waveform mismatch: a caveat on waveform accuracy
Keefe Mitman, Leo C. Stein, Michael Boyle +4
The Simulating eXtreme Spacetimes Collaboration's code SpEC can now routinely simulate binary black hole mergers undergoing orbits, with the longest simulations undergoing…
