Using the effective-one-body (EOB) formalism and a time-domain Teukolsky code, we generate inspiral, merger, and ringdown waveforms in the small mass-ratio limit. We use EOB inspiral and plunge trajectories to build the Teukolsky equation…

As gravitational-wave detectors become more sensitive, we will access a greater variety of signals emitted by compact binary systems, shedding light on their astrophysical origin and environment. A key physical effect that can distinguish…

We calculate the gravitational waveform for spinning, precessing compact binary inspirals through second post-Newtonian order in the amplitude. When spins are collinear with the orbital angular momentum and the orbits are quasi-circular, we…

We present a time domain waveform model that describes the inspiral-merger-ringdown (IMR) of compact binary systems whose components are non-spinning, and which evolve on orbits with low to moderate eccentricity. The inspiral evolution is…

We develop and implement a new hybrid waveform model for quasicircular inspirals with a spinning primary and nonspinning secondary, excluding the merger and ringdown. This model, which is a core component of the more extensive WaSABI-C…
