The analysis of a general multibody physical system governed by Einstein's equations in quite difficult, even if numerical methods (on a computer) are used. Some of the difficulties -- many coupled degrees of freedom, dynamic instability -- are associated with the presence of gravitational waves. We have developed a number of ``waveless approximation theories'' (WAT) which repress the gravitational radiation and thereby simplify the analysis. The matter, according to these theories, evolves dynamically. The gravitational field, however, is determined at each time step by a set of elliptic equations with matter sources. There is reason to believe that for many physical systems, the WAT-generated system evolution is a very accurate approximation to that generated by the full Einstein theory.

  1. Celephais: efficient spectral initial data code for precessing compact binaries

    gr-qc 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Celephais constructs spectrally accurate binary-neutron-star and black-hole-neutron-star initial data with arbitrary spin orientations, using a sparse Jacobian, adaptive hp-refinement, and PN-informed eccentricity reduction.

  2. Universal relations applied to proto-neutron star generated gravitational waves from three-dimensional core collapse supernova simulations

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Against four Chimera core-collapse supernova simulations, most published universal relations for proto-neutron-star oscillations track the simulated gravitational-wave peak frequencies only during short post-bounce intervals.
