Bowen-type initial data for simulations of neutron stars in binary systems

A new method for generating initial data for simulations of neutron stars in binary systems. The construction of physically relevant initial data is crucial to accurate assessment of gravitational wave signals relative to theoretical predictions. This method builds upon the Bowen-York curvature for...
