Detecting gravitational waves from precessing binaries of spinning compact objects: Adiabatic limit

Detecting gravitational waves from precessing binaries of spinning compact objects: Adiabatic limit

Black-hole (BH) binaries with single-BH masses $m=(5\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}{20)M}_{\ensuremath{\bigodot}},$ moving on quasicircular orbits, are among the most promising sources for first-generation ground-based gravitational-wave (GW) detectors. Until now, the development of data-analysis techniques to detect GWs from these sources has been focused mostly on nonspinning BHs. The data-analysis problem for the spinning case …
