Constructing gravitational waves from generic spin-precessing compact binary inspirals

Constructing gravitational waves from generic spin-precessing compact binary inspirals

The coalescence of compact objects is one of the most promising sources of gravitational waves for ground-based interferometric detectors, such as advanced LIGO and Virgo. Generically, com- pact objects in binaries are expected to be spinning with spin angular momenta misaligned with the orbital angular momentum, causing the orbital plane …
