Gravitational waves from merging compact binaries: How accurately can one extract the binary's parameters from the inspiral waveform?

TL;DR: This work investigates how accurately the distance to the source and the masses and spins of the two bodies will be measured from the inspiral gravitational wave signals by the three-detector LIGO-VIRGO network using ``advanced detectors'' (those present a few years after initial operation).

Laser Interferometer Space Antenna

TL;DR: The LISA Consortium as mentioned in this paper proposed a 4-year mission in response to ESA's call for missions for L3, which is an all-sky monitor and will offer a wide view of a dynamic cosmos using Gravitational Waves as new and unique messengers to unveil The Gravitational Universe.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spin-induced orbital precession and its modulation of the gravitational waveforms from merging binaries.

TL;DR: This paper analyzes the resulting modulation of the inspiral gravitational waveform, using post2-Newtonian equations to describe the precession of the orbital plane, but only the leading-order ( newtonian, quadrupole-moment approximation) equations to describes the orbit, the radiation reaction, the inspirals, and the wave generation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intermediate and Extreme Mass-Ratio Inspirals -- Astrophysics, Science Applications and Detection using LISA

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the current state of knowledge and an outline of some of the outstanding questions that still need to be addressed is provided, based on discussions at a workshop hosted by the Albert Einstein Institute in Golm, Germany.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tidal interactions of inspiraling compact binaries

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that for inspiraling neutron stars of mass greater than about 1.2 solar mass, the shortest possible tidal synchronization time exceeds the gravitational decay time, so that the neutron star cannot be tidally locked prior to tidal disruption, regardless of its internal viscosity.
