The inspiral phase of gravitational waves emitted by spinless compact binary systems is derived through the fourth-and-a-half post-Newtonian (4.5PN) order beyond quadrupole radiation, and the leading amplitude mode ($\ell$, m) = (2, 2) is…

We obtain an efficient description for the dynamics of nonspinning compact binaries moving in inspiralling eccentric orbits to implement the phasing of gravitational waves from such binaries at the 3.5 post-Newtonian (PN) order. Our…

Gravitational radiation can be decomposed as an infinite sum of radiative multipole moments, which parametrize the waveform at infinity. The multipolar-post-Minkowskian formalism provides a connection between these multipoles and the source…
