« Probing dynamics of spinning binaries »

A prescription is developed to obtain temporally evolving gravitational wave (GW) polarization states for spinning compact binaries in inspiraling eccentric orbits, while restricting spin effects to the leading order spin-orbit coupling. We compare our approach with another prescription for doing GW phasing for binaries in quasi-eccentric orbits. In the concluding part, our approach is employed to explore the reported spin flip of primary black hole during its inspiral phase.
