Ten years of GW detections
This year we celebrated the ten year anniversary of the first detection of gravitational waves (GWs) by LIGO. To do so, we discussed various cutting-edge aspects of the EOB framework and its applications, from advancements in analytical relativity to challenges in data analysis. In particular, we focused on:
- The inclusion of post-Minkowskian information in EOB models, and synergies with numerical relativity
- The modeling of binaries on non-circular orbits, from the test-mass to the comparable mass regime
On 03/09/25 we followed two special lectures by Thibault Damour, dedicated to 25 years of the EOB approach, and Aaron Zimmerman, on 10 years of gravitational wave detection. These lectures were addressed to a non expert audience.
