Review text

In this note the author presents the general description of a research program to find numerically a stationary spacetime which can approximate over some stretch of time a slowly inspiralling compact object binary. A stationary solution to the radiative problem can be obtained by replacing the physical boundary condition of purely outgoing radiation with a condition corresponding to an equal mix of ingoing and outgoing radiation. The arguments considered in the present note are: Quasi-stationary approximation, Radiation-balanced boundary conditions, Cosmic string toy model, Spacetimes with two Killing vectors, Perturbations to Levi Civita, Strategy for radiation balance in general relativity. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0993.00060].
