In recent years, the modelling of gravitational wave sources has become a cornerstone of theoretical and numerical relativity. Multiple communities—working with distinct formalisms such as Self-Force, Effective One Body (EOB), Effective Field Theory (EFT) and post-Newtonian approximations—have developed powerful tools to describe the two-body problem with increasing precision. Each of these approaches is advanced enough to come with its own set of language, notation, conceptual framework, and computational tools.
The workshop aims to bridge this gap and bring these communities closer together. This will be done by providing a mix of beginner friendly lectures, hands on coding sessions, plenary overviews together with state of the art research talks for each of the fields.
