Dynamical ejecta from precessing neutron star-black hole mergers with a hot, nuclear-theory based equation of state

Francois Foucart, Dhruv Desai, Wyatt Brege +6

Neutron star-black hole binaries are among the strongest sources of gravitational waves detectable by current observatories. They can also power bright electromagnetic signals (gam…

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…

Complete waveform model for compact binaries on eccentric orbits

E. A. Huerta, Prayush Kumar, Bhanu Agarwal +11

We present a time domain waveform model that describes the inspiral-merger-ringdown (IMR) of compact binary systems whose components are non-spinning, and which evolve on orbits wi…

Modeling the source of GW150914 with targeted numerical-relativity simulations

Geoffrey Lovelace, Carlos O. Lousto, James Healy +11

In fall of 2015, the two LIGO detectors measured the gravitational wave signal GW150914, which originated from a pair of merging black holes. In the final 0.2 seconds (about 8 grav…

Accuracy of binary black hole waveform models for aligned-spin binaries

Prayush Kumar, Tony Chu, Heather Fong +6

Coalescing binary black holes are among the primary science targets for second generation ground-based gravitational wave (GW) detectors. Reliable GW models are central to detectio…
