Quadrupole and quadratic-in-spin effects in quasicircular, spinning, asymmetric binaries
Mostafizur Rahman, Misbah Shahzadi, Adam Pound +1
Next-generation gravitational-wave detectors will require significant improvements in current theoretical waveform models, particularly in the case of asymmetric-mass binaries. Her…
Post-adiabatic self-force waveforms: slowly spinning primary and precessing secondary
Josh Mathews, Barry Wardell, Adam Pound +1
Recent progress in gravitational self-force theory has led to the development of a first post-adiabatic (1PA) waveform model for nonspinning, quasicircular compact binaries [Phys.…
LISA science ground segment conventions
Quentin Baghi, Stanislas Babak, Leor Barack +22
This document sets out the conventions used for data simulations, waveforms, and analysis pipelines within the Distributed Data Processing Centre (DDPC) of the Laser Interferometer…
Post-adiabatic waveform-generation framework for asymmetric precessing binaries
Josh Mathews, Adam Pound
Recent years have seen rapid progress in calculations of gravitational waveforms from asymmetric compact binaries containing spinning secondaries. Here we outline a complete wavefo…
Hybrid waveform model for asymmetric spinning binaries: Self-force meets post-Newtonian theory
Loïc Honet, Adam Pound, Geoffrey Compère
We develop and implement a new hybrid waveform model for quasicircular inspirals with a spinning primary and nonspinning secondary, excluding the merger and ringdown. This model, w…
Spin-aligned inspiral waveforms from self-force and post-Newtonian theory
Loïc Honet, Josh Mathews, Geoffrey Compère +5
We present the state-of-the-art waveform model WaSABI-C for quasicircular inspirals of spinning black hole binaries with aligned or anti-aligned spins. Our model synthesizes the mo…
