Gravitational waveforms for neutron star binaries from binary black hole simulations

Kevin Barkett, Mark A. Scheel, Roland Haas +9

Gravitational waves from binary neutron star (BNS) and black hole/neutron star (BHNS) inspirals are primary sources for detection by the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational…

Binary Neutron Stars with Arbitrary Spins in Numerical Relativity

Nick Tacik, Francois Foucart, Harald P. Pfeiffer +8

We present a code to construct initial data for binary neutron star systems in which the stars are rotating. Our code, based on a formalism developed by Tichy, allows for arbitrary…

Accuracy and precision of gravitational-wave models of inspiraling neutron star -- black hole binaries with spin: comparison with numerical relativity in the low-frequency regime

Prayush Kumar, Kevin Barkett, Swetha Bhagwat +5

Coalescing binaries of neutron stars (NS) and black holes (BH) are one of the most important sources of gravitational waves for the upcoming network of ground based detectors. Dete…

Improvements to the construction of binary black hole initial data

Serguei Ossokine, Francois Foucart, Harald P. Pfeiffer +2

Construction of binary black hole initial data is a prerequisite for numerical evolutions of binary black holes. This paper reports improvements to the binary black hole initial da…

Comparing Post-Newtonian and Numerical-Relativity Precession Dynamics

Serguei Ossokine, Michael Boyle, Lawrence E. Kidder +3

Binary black-hole systems are expected to be important sources of gravitational waves for upcoming gravitational-wave detectors. If the spins are not colinear with each other or wi…

Gauge Invariant Spectral Cauchy Characteristic Extraction

Casey J. Handmer, Béla Szilágyi, Jeffrey Winicour

We present gauge invariant spectral Cauchy characteristic extraction. We compare gravitational waveforms extracted from a head-on black hole merger simulated in two different gauge…
