Complete waveform models able to account for arbitrary non-planar orbits represent a holy grail in current gravitational-wave astronomy. Here, we take a step towards this direction and present a simple yet efficient prescription to obtain the evolution of the spin vectors and of the orbital angular momentum along non-circularized orbits, that can be applied to any eccentric aligned-spins waveform model. The scheme employed is motivated by insights gained from the post-Newtonian (PN) regime. We investigate the phenomenology of the Euler angles characterizing the time-dependent rotation that connects the co-precessing frame to the inertial one, gauging the importance of non-circular terms in the evolution of the spins of a precessing binary. We demonstrate that such terms are largely negligible, irrespectively of the details of the orbit. Such insights are confirmed by studying the radiation-frame of a few eccentric, precessing numerical relativity (NR) simulations. Our investigations confirm that the usual "twisting" technique employed for quasi-spherical systems can be safely applied to non-circularized binaries. By then augmenting a state-of-the-art Effective-One-Body (EOB) model for non-circular planar orbits with the prescription discussed, we obtain an inspiral-merger-ringdown (IMR) model for eccentric, precessing binary black holes (BBHs). We validate the model in the quasi-spherical limit via mismatches and present one phasing comparison against a precessing, eccentric simulation from the RIT catalog.

    gr-qc 2026-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The authors compute tail-of-tail contributions to the effective-one-body Q potential through p_r^12 and derive new second-order self-force redshift predictions for eccentric binaries.

  2. From the confluent Heun equation to a new factorized and resummed gravitational waveform for circularized, nonspinning, compact binaries

    gr-qc 2026-02 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A new resummation absorbs all test-mass logarithms and transcendental numbers into closed-form factors, leaving rational polynomial waveform corrections up to 10PN.

    gr-qc 2026-03 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A post-Newtonian model of the boosted center-of-mass charge makes BMS frame-fixing of nonprecessing, unequal-mass NR waveforms less sensitive to the fitting window, reducing parameter variance by up to ~25x.

    gr-qc 2026-03 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    NR late-inspiral calibration systematics in IMRPhenomD produce false ppE GR violations at O5 SNRs ≳60; an uncertainty-aware baseline restores consistency with GR up to SNR 330.

    An extended gravitational-wave amplitude test adds (4,4) and (3,2) modes, reports a new δA44 constraint from GW230814, and shows precession and eccentricity can mimic GR violations.

    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.
