Gravitational waveforms from inspiralling compact binaries to second-post-Newtonian order
Gravitational waveforms from inspiralling compact binaries to second-post-Newtonian order
The two independent `plus' and `cross' polarization waveforms associated with the gravitational waves emitted by inspiralling, non-spinning, compact binaries are presented, ready for use in the data analysis of signals received by future laser interferometer gravitational-wave detectors such as LIGO and VIRGO. The computation is based on a recently derived …
