Analytic systematics and the impact of Post-Minkowskian calculations on waveform modeling
The overreaching problem that we wished to tackle during the workshop was the identification of clear scenarios where high-order analytical information (from Post-Newtonian, Post-Minkowskian and gravitational self-force calculations) might be required and impact waveform modeling.This regards both circularized/eccentric binary black holes and unbound systems.
In particular, we focused on:
- Critically overviewing the current EOB approach based on post-Newtonian results and identify areas of improvement in both the conservative and radiative sectors of the model
- Investigating how post-Minkowskian knowledge could impact (and possibly improve) the current approach to waveform modeling for either bound or unbound systems
