Quasi-stationary binary inspiral II: Radiation-balanced boundary conditions
The quasi-stationary method for black hole binary inspiral is an approximation for studying strong field effects while suppressing radiation reaction. In this paper we use a nonlinear scalar field toy model (i) to explain the underlying method of approximating binary motion by periodic orbits with radiation; (ii) to show how the fields in such a model are found by the solution of a boundary val...
متن کاملQuasi-stationary Binary Inspiral: Project Overview
I describe the current status of a collaboration with J. D. Romano, R. H. Price, and W. Krivan to model the geometry of and gravitational radiation emitted by a binary system of compact objects in the regime where nonperturbative gravitational effects exist, but the rate of inspiral is still small relative to the orbital frequency. The method of looking for a stationary spacetime which approxim...
متن کاملRadiation-balanced simulations for binary inspiral
The late stage of the inspiral of two black holes may have important non-Newtonian effects that are unrelated to radiation reaction. To understand these effects we approximate a slowly inspiralling binary by a stationary solution to Einstein’s equations in which the holes orbit eternally. Radiation reaction is nullified by specifying a boundary condition at infinity containing equal amounts of ...
متن کاملQuasi-stationary binary inspiral I: Einstein equations for the two Killing vector spacetime
The inspiral of a binary system of compact objects due to gravitational radiation is investigated using the toy model of two infinitely long lines of mass moving in a fixed circular orbit. The two Killing fields in the toy model are used, according to a formalism introduced by Geroch, to describe the geometry entirely in terms of a set of tensor fields on the two-manifold of Killing vector orbi...
متن کاملBinary inspiral, gravitational radiation, and cosmology.
Observations of binary inspiral in a single interferometric gravitational wave detector can be cataloged according to signal-to-noise ratio ρ and chirp mass M. The distribution of events in a catalog composed of observations with ρ greater than a threshold ρ0 depends on the Hubble expansion, deceleration parameter, and cosmological constant, as well as the distribution of component masses in bi...
