Gravitational Waves Notes, Issue #2 : "A probe of spacetime and astrophysics: EMRIs"

Abstract

GW Notes was born from the need for a journal where the distinct communities involved in gravitation wave research might gather. While these three communities - Astrophysics, General Relativity and Data Analysis - have made significant collaborative progress over recent years, we believe that it is indispensable to future advancement that they draw closer, and that they speak a common idiom. For this GW Notes issue we have approached Nicol\'as Yunes (Princeton University) to extend in high detail his recent work on EMRI waveforms for our highlight article.
