Description

Waveform templates are necessary prerequisite for detecting gravitational waves and extracting information from them. The sources that LISA will observe set various new challenges for waveform development related to mass-ratio, eccentricity, and required waveform accuracy. I will review the waveform development activities in the LISA consortium, including both LISA science group work packages, and the activities of the LISA Waveform Working group. In particular, I will focus on aspects where input of the Astrophysics Working Group is needed.
