h+(t) and h×(t) The plots for the scaled h+(t) and h×(t) (Newtonian in amplitude and 3.5PN in orbital motion) as functions of l/(2π). The slow chirping and the amplitude modulation due to the periastron precession are clearly visible in the two upper panels. In the two bottom panels, we zoom into the initial stages of the orbital evolution in order to show the effect of the periodic orbital motion and the periastron advance on the scaled h+(t) and h×(t). The initial and final values of the relevant orbital elements are marked on top of the plots. The panels are plotted for a binary consisting of equal masses, so that η = 0.25, and the orbital inclination angle is given by i = π/3. The orbital evolution is terminated when j = √ 48.
