18 Aug 1997 | | Journal: | Phys.Rev. D57 (1998) 885-907 | | Subject: | gr-qc | | Affiliation: | Institut des Hautes Etudes Scientifiques and DARC, CNRS), Bala R. Iyer (Raman Research Institute) and B.S. Sathyaprakash (Cardiff University of Wales and Caltech | | Abstract: | The order of the post-Newtonian expansion needed, to extract in a reliable and accurate manner the fully general relativistic gravitational wave signal from inspiralling compact binaries, is explored. A class of approximate wave forms, called P-approximants, is constructed based on the following two inputs: (a) The introduction of two new energy-type and flux-type functions e(v) and f(v), respectively, (b) the systematic use of Pade approximation for constructing successive approximants of e(v) and f(v). The new P-approximants are not only more effectual (larger overlaps) and more faithful (smaller biases) than the standard Taylor approximants, but also converge faster and monotonically. The presently available O(v/c)^5-accurate post-Newtonian results can be used to construct P-approximate wave forms that provide overlaps with the exact wave form larger than 96.5% implying that more than 90% of potential events can be detected with the aid of P-approximants as opposed to a mere 10-15 % that would be detectable using standard post-Newtonian approximants. | | Source: | arXiv, gr-qc/9708034 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
