Gravitational waveforms of binary neutron star inspirals using post-Newtonian tidal splicing

Kevin Barkett, Yanbei Chen, Mark A. Scheel +1

The tidal deformations of neutron stars within an inspiraling compact binary alter the orbital dynamics, imprinting a signature on the gravitational wave signal. Modeling this sign…

Spectral Cauchy-characteristic extraction of the gravitational wave news function

Kevin Barkett, Jordan Moxon, Mark A. Scheel +1

We present an improved spectral algorithm for Cauchy-characteristic extraction and characteristic evolution of gravitational waves in numerical relativity. The new algorithms impro…
