Detailed Description

Radiation Reaction Gravitational Waves Class.

This class defines functions that are useful for computing gravitational waves and radiation reaction. Aspects of this class may fit better in another module, and may be moved elsewhere in a future release.

Member Function Documentation

◆ alpha_func()

Real RRGW::alpha_func	(	const Real	a,
		const int	m,
		const Real	lamb,
		const Real	w,
		const Real	p
	)

Used to get down-horizon fluxes.

◆ Psi4()

void RRGW::Psi4	(	const int	m,
		const Real	t_ret,
		const Real	phi,
		const Real	S,
		const Real	w,
		const Complex	ZI,
		Complex &	psi4
	)

Quasi-general purpose, but does not work well for inspirals!

◆ Wave() [1/2]

void RRGW::Wave	(	const int	m,
		const Real	t_ret,
		const Real	phi,
		const Real	S,
		const Real	w,
		const Complex	ZI,
		Real &	hplus,
		Real &	hcross
	)

Quasi-general purpose, but does not work well for inspirals!

◆ Wave() [2/2]

void RRGW::Wave	(	const int	m,
		const int	k,
		const Real	N_m,
		const Real	N_k,
		const Real	phi,
		const Real	S,
		const Real	w,
		const Complex	ZH,
		Real &	hplus,
		Real &	hcross
	)

Good for restricted inspiral, with indices m & k.
