The mechanics of open systems and applications in effective field theory
Speaker(s): Chad Galley
Abstract: Recent years have seen the paradigm of effective field theory (EFT) successfully applied to an increasing number of classical systems that range from the gravitational inspiral of compact binaries to hydrodynamics. Many of these systems exhibit dissipation in one form or another, such as radiation r... read more

High-accuracy modeling of extreme mass ratio inspirals with effective field theory
Speaker(s): Chad Galley
Abstract: The upcoming launch of the space-based gravitational wave interferometer detector LISA will yield an unprecedented amount of astrophysical and cosmological science from a variety of gravitational wave sources. Among these, the extreme mass ratio inspirals (EMRIs) of stellar-mass compact objects into... read more

Automating the post-Newtonian expansion on a computer
Speaker(s): Chad Galley
Abstract: With several ground-based gravitational wave interferometers operating at design sensitivity the need for high-order post-Newtonian (PN) calculations of potentials waveforms etc. especially including spin effects has grown significantly over the last several years. Not only are these calculations ne... read more
