Enriching the Symphony of Gravitational Waves from Binary Black Holes by Tuning Higher Harmonics

Roberto Cotesta, Alessandra Buonanno, Alejandro Bohé +3

For the first time, we construct an inspiral-merger-ringdown waveform model within the effective-one-body formalism for spinning, nonprecessing binary black holes that includes gra…

Conservative Dynamics of Binary Systems of Compact Objects at the Fourth Post-Newtonian Order

Laura Bernard, Luc Blanchet, Alejandro Bohé +2

We review our recent derivation of a Fokker action describing the conservative dynamics of a compact binary system at the fourth post-Newtonian (4PN) approximation of general relat…

Dimensional regularization of the IR divergences in the Fokker action of point-particle binaries at the fourth post-Newtonian order

Laura Bernard, Luc Blanchet, Alejandro Bohé +2

The Fokker action of point-particle binaries at the fourth post-Newtonian (4PN) approximation of general relativity has been determined previously. However two ambiguity parameters…

An improved effective-one-body model of spinning, nonprecessing binary black holes for the era of gravitational-wave astrophysics with advanced detectors

Alejandro Bohé, Lijing Shao, Andrea Taracchini +17

We improve the accuracy of the effective-one-body (EOB) waveforms that were employed during the first observing run of Advanced LIGO for binaries of spinning, nonprecessing black h…

Energy and periastron advance of compact binaries on circular orbits at the fourth post-Newtonian order

Laura Bernard, Luc Blanchet, Alejandro Bohé +2

In this paper, we revisit and complete our preceding work on the Fokker Lagrangian describing the dynamics of compact binary systems at the fourth post-Newtonian (4PN) order in har…

Searching for Gravitational Waves from Compact Binaries with Precessing Spins

Ian Harry, Stephen Privitera, Alejandro Bohé +1

Current searches for gravitational waves from compact-object binaries with the LIGO and Virgo observatories employ waveform models with spins aligned (or anti-aligned) with the orb…
