Gravitational waveforms from spinning objects

Theocharis Apostolatos (1997)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

According to general relativity, a binary consisting of spinning bodies will precess due to spin-orbit and spin-spin coupling. The corresponding modulation of its gravitational waves might be a serious problem for detecting such waves with simple post-Newtonian templates. A new family of templates that takes into account the complications arising from the orbital precession is proposed and its application and performance are discussed.

Post-Newtonian approximation in the test particle limit

Misao Sasaki (1997)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

Gravitational radiation from a small mass particle orbiting a massive black hole can be analytically studied to a very high order in the post-Newtonian expansion. Thus it gives us useful information on the evolution of a coalescing compact binary star. In this talk, I report on recent progress made in the black-hole perturbation approach.

Gravitational radiation from accreting neutron stars

Bernard Schutz (1997)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

Neutron stars may emit steady gravitational wave signals that will be among the first kinds of gravitational wave signals that the new generation of interferometric detectors will search for. I consider here the possibility that accreting neutron stars may be driven into the steady emission of gravitational waves. I estimate the amplitudes that the waves may have if the accretion takes place at the Eddington limit, such as may happen when a neutron star spirals inside a giant star in...
