Gravitational Waves From Inspiralling Compact Binaries : 3PN Polarisations, Angular Momentum Flux And Applications To Astrophysics And Cosmology
Binary systems comprising of compact objects like neutron stars (NS) and/or black holes (BH) lose their energy and angular momentum via gravitational waves (GW). Radiation reaction due to the emission of GW results in a gradual shrinking of the binary orbit and an accompanying gradual increase in th...
