Compact Binaries as Sources of Gravitational Radiation
With current terrestrial gravitational wave detectors working at initial design sensitivities, and upgrades and space missions planned, it is likely that in the next five to ten years gravitational radiation will be detected directly from a variety of classes of objects. The most confidently expected of these classes is compact binaries, involving neutron stars or black holes. Detection of thei...
متن کاملGravitational waves from coalescing compact binaries
This article is intended to provide a pedagogical account of issues related to, and recent work on, gravitational waves from coalescing compact binaries (composed of neutron stars and/or black holes). These waves are the most promising for kilometer-size interferometric detectors such as LIGO and VIRGO. Topics discussed include: interferometric detectors and their noise; coalescing compact bina...
متن کاملGravitational Radiation from Post-Newtonian Sources and Inspiralling Compact Binaries
The article reviews the current status of a theoretical approach to the problem of the emission of gravitational waves by isolated systems in the context of general relativity. Part A of the article deals with general post-Newtonian sources. The exterior field of the source is investigated by means of a combination of analytic post-Minkowskian and multipolar approximations. The physical observa...
متن کاملAstrophysical significance of detection of coalescing binaries with gravitational waves
We use the StarTrack stellar population synthesis code to analyze properties of double compact object binaries as sources of gravitational waves. Since the distribution of lifetimes of these objects extends up to the Hubble time we conclude that a proper calculation of the expected rate must include a full cosmological model. We present such model, calculate the expected coalescence rates, and ...
متن کاملData Analysis of Gravitational Wave Signals from Coalescing Binaries
In this lecture I shall be dealing with the techniques of Data analysis which will be used to extract the gravitational wave signal from the noisy output of the gravitational wave detector. The inspiral of binary systems consisting of compact objects such as black-holes and neutron stars can be well modelled. The knowledge of the signal waveform enables us to design detection strategies which a...
