On the accuracy and precision of numerical waveforms: effect of waveform extraction methodology
2016
Classical and quantum gravity
We present a new set of 95 numerical relativity simulations of non-precessing binary black holes (BBHs). The simulations sample comprehensively both black-hole spins up to spin magnitude of 0.9, and cover mass ratios 1 to 3. The simulations cover on average 24 inspiral orbits, plus merger and ringdown, with low initial orbital eccentricities e<10^-4. A subset of the simulations extends the coverage of non-spinning BBHs up to mass ratio q=10. Gravitational waveforms at asymptotic infinity are
