偏心双星黑洞模拟与后牛顿模型的比较

Comparisons of eccentric binary black hole simulations with post-Newtonian models

Ian Hinder, Frank Herrmann, Pablo Laguna, Deirdre Shoemaker

摘要:

我们提出了第一个偏心的二元黑洞系统的数值相对论(NR)模拟与相应的后牛顿(PN)的结果之间的比较。我们演化了一个初始偏心率e ~ 0.1的等质量非自旋组态,并合前的21个引力波周期,发现引力波相位与绝热偏心PN模型一致,其中2 PN辐射反应在0.1弧度以内,持续10个周期. NR和PN相位差在合并之前通过5个周期增长到0.7弧度。我们发现这些结果可以通过将偏心PN表达式用与频率有关的变量x =(ω M)^{2/3}展开得到,其中M是双星的总质量。当使用平均运动n = 2 π/P(其中P是轨道周期)时,比较结果与NR有很大的不同。

英文摘要:

We present the first comparison between numerical relativity (NR) simulations of an eccentric binary black hole system with corresponding post-Newtonian (PN) results. We evolve an equal-mass, non-spinning configuration with an initial eccentricity e ~ 0.1 for 21 gravitational wave cycles before merger, and find agreement in the gravitational wave phase with an adiabatic eccentric PN model with 2 PN radiation reaction within 0.1 radians for 10 cycles. The NR and PN phase difference grows to 0.7 radians by 5 cycles before merger. We find that these results can be obtained by expanding the eccentric PN expressions in terms of the frequency-related variable x = (omega M)^{2/3} with M the total mass of the binary. When using instead the mean motion n = 2 π/P, where P is the orbital period, the comparison leads to significant disagreements with NR.
