Comparison of high-accuracy numerical simulations of black-hole binaries with stationary phase post-Newtonian template waveforms for Initial and Advanced LIGO
Michael Boyle, Duncan A. Brown, Larne Pekowsky
We study the effectiveness of stationary-phase approximated post-Newtonian waveforms currently used by ground-based gravitational-wave detectors to search for the coalescence of bi…
High-accuracy waveforms for binary black hole inspiral, merger, and ringdown
Mark A. Scheel, Michael Boyle, Tony Chu +3
The first spectral numerical simulations of 16 orbits, merger, and ringdown of an equal-mass non-spinning binary black hole system are presented. Gravitational waveforms from these…
High-accuracy numerical simulation of black-hole binaries: Computation of the gravitational-wave energy flux and comparisons with post-Newtonian approximants
Michael Boyle, Alessandra Buonanno, Lawrence E. Kidder +4
Expressions for the gravitational wave (GW) energy flux and center-of-mass energy of a compact binary are integral building blocks of post-Newtonian (PN) waveforms. In this paper,…
Testing the Accuracy and Stability of Spectral Methods in Numerical Relativity
Michael Boyle, Lee Lindblom, Harald Pfeiffer +2
The accuracy and stability of the Caltech-Cornell pseudospectral code is evaluated using the KST representation of the Einstein evolution equations. The basic "Mexico City Tests" w…
