Gravitational-wave versus binary-pulsar tests of strong-field gravity
Gravitational-wave versus binary-pulsar tests of strong-field gravity
Binary systems comprising at least one neutron star contain strong gravitational field regions and thereby provide a testing ground for strong-field gravity. Two types of data can be used to test the law of gravity in compact binaries: binary pulsar observations, or forthcoming gravitational-wave observations of inspiralling binaries. We compare …
