Effective-one-body (EOB) numerical-relativity (NR) waveform models for spin-aligned binary black holes (BBHs), known as the SEOBNR waveform models, are based on the EOB theoretical framework and NR simulations. SEOBNR models have played an important role in the LIGO scientific collaboration (LSC) gravitational wave (GW) data analysis for both signal search and parameter estimation. SEOBNR models for quasi-circular orbits have evolved through version 1 to version 4 by extending their validity domain and including more NR results. Along another direction, we recently extended SEOBNRv1 model to SEOBNRE model which is valid for spin-aligned BBH coalescence along eccentric orbits. In this paper we validate this theoretical waveform model by comparing them against the numerical relativity simulation bank, Simulating eXtreme Spacetimes (SXS) catalog. In total, 278 NR waveforms are investigated which include binaries with large eccentricity; large spin and large mass ratio. Our SEOBNRE can model the NR waveforms quite well. The fitting factor for most of the 278 waveforms is larger than 99\%. It indicates that the SEOBNRE model could be used as template waveforms for eccentric spin-aligned BBH coalescence.

    gr-qc 2024-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    SEOBNRv5EHM, a new effective-one-body waveform model with third-post-Newtonian eccentricity corrections, reaches a median 0.02% mismatch against eccentric numerical-relativity simulations, about an order of magnitude ...

  3. Chase Orbits, not Time: A Scalable Paradigm for Long-Duration Eccentric Gravitational-Wave Surrogates

    gr-qc 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Eccentric inspiral waveforms are modeled against mean anomaly rather than time, yielding an order-of-magnitude compression and a 2.77e6 M surrogate that is ~20x faster to evaluate.

  4. Inferring additional physics through unmodelled signal reconstructions

    gr-qc 2024-12 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A cWB overlap mismatch metric, Δmedian, separates simulated 40 solar mass black hole mergers with e20 ≳ 0.17 from circular ones even when parameter estimation uses only quasicircular waveforms.

  5. Spin effects in the phasing formula of eccentric compact binary inspirals up to the third post-Newtonian order

    gr-qc 2024-12 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Closed-form post-Newtonian phasing formulas for eccentric, spin-aligned compact binary inspirals are derived to 3PN order and to eighth order in initial eccentricity, with a resummation extending validity to e0 around 0.55.
