The final pulse of gravitational wave (GW) emission is released at the peak of the chirp rise before compact binary merger. LIGO detections since GW150914 reveal a correlation between the radiated energy $E_\mathrm{rad}$ and the ad hoc…

Dynamical interactions in star clusters are an efficient mechanism to produce the coalescing binary black holes (BBHs) that have been detected with gravitational waves (GWs). We want to understand how BBH coalescence can occur during - or…
We present a study on binary-single interactions with energy loss terms such as tidal dissipation and gravitational wave emission added to the equation-of-motion. The inclusion of such terms leads to the formation of compact binaries that…
