2 1 Overview Dynamical f-mode tides in General Relativity Inclusion in the Effective-One-Body (EOB) model Tests against results from Numerical Relativity simulations Outloook

3 2 Newtonian tidal excitation of f-modes NS companion s tidal field induces a fluid displacement ξ mc companion ξ is often decomposed into spherical harmonics (equivalent alternative: STF tensors) oscillator-like Lagrangian for the mode amplitudes Effect on GWs: NS-NS black hole binary tidal imprint in the phase evolution for models: convenient to work directly with the NS s induced multipole moments Qij,Qijk, (differ from mode amplitudes by a normalization factor)

4 3 Newtonian tidal excitation of f-modes NS s induced multipole moments Qij,Qijk, NS tidal Lagrangian (quadrupole only) mc L = 1 4! 2 f apple dqij dt dq ij dt! 2 f Q ij Q ij 1 2 E ijq ij + companion tidal deformability ` = 2(` 2) 2`+1 k`r (2` 1)!! f-mode frequency tidal field E ij j mc r contributions from other l=2 modes Love number NS radius for two NSs: simply add the same terms with the parameters of the other NS

5 4 Adiabatic limit f-mode frequency scales as! f p m NS /R 3 tidal forcing frequency: 2 2 p M/r 3 for 2Ω ω f : adiabatic tides (AT) Q AT ij = E ij adiabatic tidal Lagrangian: L AT = 4 E ij E ij involves only orbital variables & tidal deformability coefficient λ

6 5 Tidal deformability characterizes dominant EoS influence on GWs during inspiral log (pressure - density) λ- mass Einstein s Eqs: linear perturbations to equilibrium sol. [One 2nd order ODE] credit: B. Lackey

7 6 NS s tidal response during the inspiral dyn. tides end of the inspiral ` =2 ` =3 adiab. tides k 2 k 3 Γ = 2 polytropic EoS, mns=1.4m ` = 2(` 2) 2`+1 k`r (2` 1)!! Love number NS radius

8 6 Tidal excitation of f-modes in GR NS s worldline x ( ) u µ m, S µ, Q µ E µ = C µ recall Newtonian tidal Lagrangian: L = 1 4! 2 f apple dqij dt dq ij dt relativistic version: L DT = L z 4 z 2! 2 f redshift apple DQµ D d d! 2 f Q ij Q ij 1 2 E ijq ij DQ µ d z 2! 2 f Q µ Q µ other l=2 modes & other stuff e.g. due to incompleteness of modes z 2 E µ Q µ = covariant derivative along worldline u u z 2, C µ : Weyl curvature tensor (companion) +

9 7 Tidal excitation of f-modes in GR relativistic tidal Lagrangian: u µ L L DT = NS s worldline x ( ) m, S µ, Q µ redshift z 4 z 2! 2 f apple DQµ d DQ µ d z 2! 2 f Q µ Q µ z 2 E µ Q µ NS 3+1 decomposition to make explicit the physical degrees of freedom: frame-dragging interaction between orbital and Qij s angular momentum characterized by the tidal spin tensor: S ij Q = 2! 2 f Q k[i Q j]k

10 8 Explicit expressions in the weak field limit post-newtonian (PN) results for tidal effects without any new PN calculations: (i) tidal interaction terms vs. known PN results for spin-induced quadrupoles 1 2 E µ Q µ simply substitute C ES 2S j S i! mq ij C ES 2 2m E µ S µ S (ii) frame-dragging interaction betwen orbital angular momentum and tidal spin simply replace spin by SQ in known PN frame-dragging potentials the resulting 1PN accurate tidal Lagrangian agrees with Vines & Flanagan 2013
