abstract
Gravitational wave astronomy pipelines rely on template waveform models for searches and parameter estimation purposes. For coalescing binary neutron stars (BNS), such models need to accurately reproduce numerical relativity (NR) up to merger, in order to provide robust estimate of the stars' equation of state - dependent parameters. In this work we present an improved version of the Effective One Body (EOB) model $\tt TEOBResumS$ for gravitational waves from BNS systems. Building upon recent post-Newtonian calculations, we include subleading order tidal terms in the waveform multipoles and EOB metric potentials, as well as add up to 5.5PN terms in the gyro-gravitomagnetic functions entering the spin-orbit sector of the model. In order to further improve the EOB-NR agreement in the last few orbital cycles before merger, we introduce next-to-quasicircular corrections in the waveform -- informed by a large number of BNS NR simulations -- and introduce a new NR-informed parameter entering the tidal sector of our conservative dynamics. The performance of our model is then validated against 14 new eccentricity reduced simulations of unequal mass, spinning binaries with varying equation of state. A time-domain phasing analysis and mismatch computations demonstrate that the new model overall improves over the previous version of $\tt TEOBResumS$. Finally, we present a closed-form frequency domain representation of the (tidal) amplitude and phase of the new model. This representation accounts for mass-ratio, aligned spin and (resummed) spin-quadrupole effects in the tidal phase and -- within the calibration region -- it is faithful to the original model.

Nonlinear hydrodynamics in spinning neutron stars: Theoretical universal relations and equilibrium solutions
Affine-model hydrodynamics shows three-wave NS tidal couplings are fixed by linear Love numbers, yet omit ~1.7 rad of GW phase per star by merger; four-wave terms cannot lock f-modes.

Effective-one-body model for coalescing binary neutron stars: Incorporating tidal spin and enhanced radiation from dynamical tides
A new EOB model for BNS/NSBH inspirals adds tidal-spin back-reaction and finite-frequency radiation corrections, yielding waveform phase shifts up to a few radians that previous effective Love number models miss.

The error budget of binary neutron star merger simulations for configurations with high spin
For highly spinning (chi=0.5) binary neutron stars, evolution code choice is the largest numerical waveform error, and current analytical models disagree with numerical relativity beyond that error after the stars touch.
