Numerical and post-Newtonian estimates of tidal deformation in binary neutron stars |
|
Abstract |
For most of the inspiral of a binary neutron star system, the stars are well-modeled as point particles. However, as they approach each other, an equation-of-state dependent tidal deformation modifies their orbits, changing the late inspiral waveform. The measurability of this effect in gravitational wave detectors can be estimated using both post-Newtonian tidal deformation calculations and full numerical simulations of binary neutron stars with varying equation of state. I will discuss the agreement and compatibility of these two methods. |
