Description

In previous work we have developed a method to systematically approach the problem of fitting a model to the 3-dimensional parameter space of non-precessing quasi-circular binary black holes, and applied it to construct accurate fits to final spin, radiated energy and peak luminosity, which avoid over-fitting. In this work we extend our approach to a phenomenological waveform model in the frequency domain for the dominant quadrupole spherical harmonic. This model extends the PhenomD model that is currently in use in data analysis to unequal spins and extreme mass ratios, and increases the number of numerical waveforms used for calibration by an order of magnitude. We discuss the accuracy of the model and implications for data analysis.
