Abstract

The new science of Gravitational Wave Astronomy, risen with the detections of gravitational waves emitted by compact binary coalescences, has opened up new possibilities for scientific investigation also in cosmology and fundamental physics. In this colloquium, an overview will be given of the theoretical methods presently in place to improve the current analytic knowledge of waveform models, whose accuracy is crucial to maximizing the physics output of gravitational wave detections. In particular, it will be highlighted how techniques borrowed from effective field theory in particle physics enabled a deeper and more accurate understanding of the General Relativistic two-body problem.
