Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Compact binary systems gradually decrease their orbital separations and eventually merge due to the emission of gravitational waves. There, however, exists a state which can be regarded as quasi-equilibrium in the evolutionary sequence of the binaries, because the time-scale of the orbital decay is much longer than the orbital period. In this research program, we have developed a numerical code to accurately solve Poisson-like equations by using a spectral method. First, we developed a code to perform spectral expansion and confirmed its accuracy. Then, we implemented a numerical code to solve Poisson-like equations, an essential part to obtain quasi-equilibrium figures of compact binaries, using the bi-spherical coordinates.
