Modeling multipolar gravitational-wave emission from small mass-ratio mergers

Using the effective-one-body (EOB) formalism and a time-domain Teukolsky code, we generate inspiral, merger, and ringdown waveforms in the small-mass-ratio limit. We use EOB inspiral and plunge trajectories to build the Teukolsky-equation source term, and compute full coalescence waveforms for a ran...
