🌌 Gravitational Wave Chirp (2D)

2D gravitational-wave chirp simulator: watch the strain waveform h(t) sweep from low to high frequency as a compact binary inspirals and merges, using the real post-Newtonian chirp-frequency formula f(t) ∝ (t_c − t)^(−3/8).

⚙ Under the hood

A 2D strain-waveform simulator of a compact binary inspiral. Adjust the two component masses and watch the h(t) chirp signal rise in frequency and amplitude as the real post-Newtonian inspiral formula f(t) proportional to (t_c - t)^(-3/8) drives the orbit toward merger, ending in a correctly terminated coalescence.
