The interplay between conservative and dissipative dynamics
Recent works suggests that semi-analytical EOB models approach the accuracy threshold of numerical relativity. As such, even (apparently) minor modeling choices can have significant impact on waveforms.
In this workshop we will focus on one specific aspect of the EOB framework: the modeling of the GW flux and its interplay with the conservative dynamics. In particular, we will discuss:
- Pathways to include post-Minkowskian information in the conservative EOB sector;
- The modeling of horizon absorption in the comparable and extreme-mass-ratio limits;
- Synergies and requirements from numerical relativity
