Chase Orbits, not Time: A Scalable Paradigm for Long-Duration Eccentric Gravitational-Wave Surrogates

Author(s): Akash Maurya, Prayush Kumar, Scott E. Field, Chandra Kant Mishra, Peter James Nee, Kaushik Paul, Harald P. Pfeiffer, Adhrit Ravichandran, and Vijay Varma Orbital eccentricity is a key tracer of the astrophysical origins of compact binaries; yet it remains absent from routine LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA analyses, in part because of the prohibitive computational cost of generating eccentric template waveforms. The complicated morphology of these waveforms due to … [Phys. Rev. Lett. 137, 041401] Published Tue Jul 21, 2026
