Gravitational radiation reaction and balance equations to post-Newtonian order
Gravitational radiation reaction forces and balance equations for energy and momenta are investigated to 3/2 post-Newtonian (1.5PN) order beyond the quadrupole approximation, corresponding to the 4PN order in the equations of motion of an isolated system. By matching a post-Newtonian solution for the gravitational field inside the system to a post-Minkowskian solution (obtained in a previous wo...
متن کاملPost-Newtonian Gravitational Radiation
Let us declare that the most important devoir of any physical theory is to draw firm predictions for the outcome of laboratory experiments and astronomical observations. Unfortunately, the devoir is quite difficult to fulfill in the case of general relativity, essentially because of the complexity of the Einstein field equations, to which only few exact solutions are known. For instance, it is ...
متن کاملGravitational radiation from compact binary systems: Gravitational waveforms and energy loss to second post-Newtonian order.
We derive the gravitational waveform and gravitational-wave energy flux generated by a binary star system of compact objects (neutron stars or black holes), accurate through second post-Newtonian order (O[(v/c)4] ∼ O[(Gm/rc)]) beyond the lowest-order quadrupole approximation. We cast the Einstein equations into the form of a flat-spacetime wave equation together with a harmonic gauge condition,...
متن کاملSecond-post-Newtonian generation of gravitational radiation.
This paper derives the expressions of the multipole moments of an isolated gravitating source with an accuracy corresponding to the second postNewtonian (2-PN) approximation of general relativity. The moments are obtained by a procedure of matching of the external gravitational field of the source to the inner field, and are found to be given by integrals extending over the stress-energy distri...
متن کاملGravitational field and equations of motion of spinning compact binaries to 2.5 post-Newtonian order
We derive spin-orbit coupling effects on the gravitational field and equations of motion of compact binaries in the 2.5 post-Newtonian approximation to general relativity, one PN order beyond where spin effects first appear. Our method is based on that of Blanchet, Faye, and Ponsot, who use a postNewtonian metric valid for general (continuous) fluids and represent pointlike compact objects with...
