Electromagnetic fields in compact binaries: Post-Newtonian wave generation and application to double white dwarfs systems

Electromagnetic fields in compact binaries: Post-Newtonian wave generation and application to double white dwarfs systems

The aim of this work is twofold: (i) to properly define a wave-generation formalism for compact-supported sources embedded in Einstein-Maxwell theory, relying on matched post-Newtonian and multipolar-post-Minkowskian expansions; (ii) to apply this formalism (which is valid for any type of post-Newtonian sources) to the case of two stars with constant …
