This erratum aims to correct three errors in the previous
arXiv preprint version (v3). The fully revised standalone
article (with the errors fixed) follows this erratum. In this
erratum, first, we fix Eq. (56). Then, we address a missing
±
sign in Eq. (67), and the missing steps to determine
the correct sign. Finally, we also correct Eqs. (73) and
(74). These equation numbers all correspond to the arXiv
preprint version v3 of this article.
Correction of Eq. (56): Eq. (56) should be replaced
with
dr
dt ={r, H}GM. (1)
Correction of Eq. (67): Eq. (67) should be replaced
with:
p ·ˆr=±(2hϵ(3ν1)h2) + 2(1 + ϵ(4 ν)h)
r+(l2+ϵ(6 + ν))

(

)and
Q
(
r
)each have three roots:
r0, r1
, and
r2
(in
ascending order), where
r0

Since
dr/dt
=
r, H1.5PN
= (
p ·ˆr
)
Q21
, where
Q2̸
= 0
and
H1.5PN
is the 1.5PN accurate Hamiltonian, the two
roots of
˙r
(as a function of
r
) must coincide with two of
the roots r1and r2of Q(r).
From the quasi-Keplerian parametric (QKP) solution
of
r
(Sec. III-D of the paper), the two roots
r
and
r+
of
˙r
are
ar
(1
er
). However, in general, we find
that
r1
and
r2
lie outside the interval
[r, r+]
. This
non-coincidence of the roots ((
r1, r2
)
̸
= (
r, r+
)) can be
attributed to the perturbative, and approximate nature
of our PN calculations. However, this leads to a certain
problem of discontinuity when we try to determine
p ·ˆr
(
t
),
and is detailed further below. So, we need to force the
coincidence of the roots (
r1, r2
)=(
r, r+
)by hand to
overcome this problem.
To do so, we propose the use of the QKP solution
for
r
(Sec. III-D of the paper) with modified
ar
, and
er
parameters, in Eq. (2) above. The modified parameters
(
˜ar,˜er
)are defined as
˜ar
= (
r1
+
r2
)
/
2and
˜er
= (
r2
r1
)
/
(
r1
+
r2
). With this, the roots of
˙r
derived from the
correspondingly modified QKP solution, which happen to
be ˜ar(1 ˜er), coincide with r1, and r2.
The QKP solution of
r
implies
˙r
=
arersin u˙u
, and
n
=
˙u
(1
etcos u
), which further implies that for an eccentric

˙r
vanishes are separated by the
interval
t
=
π/n
. At this point, we denote by
T0
, the
unique
t
-epoch such that
˙r
(
t
=
T0
) = 0, and 0
T0<
π/n
. We now determine
T0
for it lets us determine the
correct sign in Eq.
(2)
above. Given the initial values
of the phase-space variables (
R,
P ,
S1,
S2
), it is a simple
matter to assign
uu
(
t
= 0) such that

Plugging these initial values in
n
(
tt0
) =
uetsin u
gives
us t0. If t00, then T0=t0, otherwise T0=t0+π/n.
Now finally, to determine the sign of
p ·ˆr
at a time
tf
,
we follow the following easily justifiable algorithm:
1.
Calculate
NP/2
, the number of complete half-
periods between
T0
and
tf
. Note that one half
period in tis π/n.
2. Evaluate p ·ˆr(t= 0) with the initial conditions. If
p ·ˆr(t= 0) 0and NP/2is even, or
p ·ˆr(t= 0) 0and NP/2is odd,
then
p ·ˆr
(
tf
)
>
0, and we set
p ·ˆr
(
tf
) =
pQ(r)
.
Otherwise,
p ·ˆr
(
tf
)
<
0, and we set
p ·ˆr
(
tf
) =
pQ(r).
Now we summarize the above discussion with the help
of the figure below. The broken-red curve displays the
numerical solution for
p ·ˆr
that we want to model. The
green curve corresponds to
Q
, and it does not touch the
x-axis because of the above-discussed non-coincidence of
the roots. The use of the modified QKP solution (with
˜ar
and
˜er
) in
pQ(r)
of Eq.
(2)
gives us the blue curve

which does touch the x-axis due to the forced coincidence
of the roots. Thereafter, setting
p ·ˆr
(
tf
) =
±|Q
(
r
)
1/2|
as
per the above bullet points, basically amounts to flipping
the blue curve about the x-axis, but only in alternate
intervals of size
π/n
. The result is the orange curve which
is our final emulation of the numerical red curve. Finally
note that had we not used the modified QKP solution in
Eq.
(2)
above, we would have ended up with the broken
black curve as our final model, which is obtained by
flipping the green curve instead. As is evident from the
figure, this broken black curve suffers from the problem
of discontinuity that we alluded to in the beginning. This
concludes our discussion of determining the sign of p ·ˆr.

The closed-form solution of the 1.5 post-Newtonian (PN) accurate binary black hole (BBH)
Hamiltonian system has proven to be evasive for a long time since the introduction of the system
in 1966. Solutions of the PN BBH systems with arbitrary parameters (masses, spins, eccentricity)
are required for modeling the gravitational waves (GWs) emitted by them. Accurate models of
GWs are crucial for their detection by LIGO/Virgo and LISA. Only recently, two solution methods
for solving the BBH dynamics were proposed in Ref. [Phys. Rev. D 100, 044046 (2019)] (without
using action-angle variables), and Refs. [Phys. Rev. D 103, 064066 (2021), Phys. Rev. D 107, 103040
(2023)] (action-angle based). This paper combines the ideas laid out in the above articles, fills the
missing gaps and compiles the two solutions which are fully 1.5PN accurate. We also present a
public Mathematica package
BBHpnToolkit
which implements these two solutions and compares
them with the result of numerical integration of the evolution equations. The level of agreement
between these solutions provides a numerical verification for all the five action variables constructed
in Refs. [Phys. Rev. D 103, 064066 (2021), Phys. Rev. D 107, 103040 (2023)]. This paper hence
serves as a stepping stone for pushing the action-angle-based solution to 2PN order via canonical
perturbation theory.
I. INTRODUCTION
Construction of accurate gravitational wave (GW) tem-
plates (or models) has been crucial to the the GW detec-
tions that have taken place so far since 2015 [
1
3
]. This
is so because the method of matched filtering for GW
detection requires as one of the inputs, the theoretical tem-
plates of the GW signal to be detected. Post-Newtonian
(PN) theory serves as a useful framework within which
GWs from binary black holes (BBHs) are modeled when
the system is in its initial and longest-lived inspiral stage
[
4
]. At this stage, the two black holes (BHs) of the BBH
are far apart and move slowly around a common center.
This is also referred to as the PN regime. In the PN
framework, quantities of interest are presented in a PN
power series in the small PN paramter (ratio of the typical
speed of the system and that of light). As is typical of
power series, higher-order corrections are of smaller mag-
nitudes and carry higher PN orders. Since GWs from a
BBH are functions of the positions-momenta of the source,
modeling the positions-momenta of the BBH system is
crucial for constructing the GW templates. This paper
deals with the construction of 1.5PN accurate closed-form
solutions of the BBH system.
Since we restrict ourselves to 1.5PN order, the dissipa-
tive effects on the BBH dynamics due to GW emission
don’t enter the picture; they show up at 2.5PN. The
conservative dynamics of the system can be described
with the PN Hamiltonian framework, wherein the system
possesses a Hamiltonian that is a function of the system’s
sashwat.tanay@obspm.fr
canonical coordinates [
5
]. The leading PN order effect is
simply that of two point masses moving under mutual
Newtonian gravitational attraction whose Hamiltonian
treatment is a textbook subject matter. Such systems,
move on a closed ellipse if they are bound. The next level
of sophistication is at 1PN order wherein 1PN effects are
added to the above Newtonian system. At this level, spin
effects are ignored (they enter at 1.5PN). Ref. [
6
] provided
the quasi-Keplerian parametric solution for this system;
the trajectory is no longer a closed ellipse and the system
features the advance of periastron. The orbit still remains
confined in a plane due to the constancy of the angular
momentum vector.
Moving further up the PN ladder, we encounter the
1.5PN system whose Hamiltonian was proposed in Ref. [
7
].
At 1.5PN order, spin effects come into play for the first
time via a spin-orbit interaction (linear-in-spin), while the
spin-spin interaction terms enter at 2PN. Via numerical
integration of the resulting equations of motion (EOMs),
it is seen that the orbital plane precesses; the orbital
angular momentum is constant only in magnitude, but
not in direction. This system displays the rich interplay
of non-zero BH spins, periastron precession, along with
spin and orbital-plane precession. We concern ourselves
with this system in this paper.
Over the past decades, solutions to the dynamics of the
spinning BBH system (at 1.5PN order or higher) have
been constructed by many groups [
8
16
], but most of
them worked under some simplifying specialization like
only one BH spinning, equal masses, small eccentricity,
orbit-averaging, etc. Two recent breakthroughs have oc-
curred on the front of finding solutions to the most general
1.5PN BBH system without any simplifying assumptions
where the qualifier “most general” indicates a system with

arbitrary values of masses, spins, and eccentricity, while
still falling under the PN regime
1
. The first breakthrough
was made by Cho and Lee in Ref. [
17
] where they suc-
ceeded in integrating the EOMs of the system; the 1PN
term in the Hamiltonian was ignored throughout for sim-
plicity. The second breakthrough came in the form of
Refs. [
18
,
19
], where the authors evaluated all the action
variables (actions as in action-angle (AA) variables) and
laid out a scheme on how to construct the AA-based so-
lution of the system
2
. Against this backdrop, this paper
aims to target the following objectives
1.
Re-present the solution of Ref. [
17
] but with the
1PN terms included. We will call it the Standard
Solution.
2.
Present a systematic procedure to construct the AA-
based solution. As we will see later, the construction
of the AA-based solution requires the Standard
Solution as one of the inputs.
3.
Make available
BBHpnToolkit
, a public Mathemat-
ica package [
21
] which (1) implements the Standard
Solution, the AA-based solution, and the numerical
solution (2) gives the numerical values of all five
frequencies (rate of increase of the angle variables)
of a given BBH system, (3) computes the Poisson
brackets (PBs) between any two functions of the
phase-space variables.
Let us mention that the AA-based solution provides a
significant advantage over the Standard solution. This
is so because while extending the Standard Solution to
2PN appears quite difficult, the AA-based solution should
be extendable to 2PN via canonical perturbation theory.
This paper assembles the ideas put forth in Refs. [
18
,
19
,
22
], and provides a solid platform from where one can
springboard to push the 1.5PN solutions to 2PN order
using canonical perturbation theory.
The organization of the paper is as follows. In Sec. II,
we introduce the phase space, the Hamiltonian, the EOMs
of the system as well as the concept of AA variables. In
Sec. III, we re-present the solution of Ref. [
22
] with the
1PN terms included (Standard Solution). In Sec. IV,
we lay out an in a step-by-step fashion, the strategy to
construct the alternative AA-based solution. In Sec. V, we
introduce the Mathematica package
BBHpnToolkit
that
we release with this paper. We also make comparisons of
our analytical solutions with the numerical one, before
summarizing in Sec. VI.

In the PN approximation, the spin magnitude of a maximally
spinning BH is 0.5PN order smaller than the BH’s orbital angular
momentum.

II. THE SETUP
This paper is the culmination of the research initiated
in Refs. [
17
], [
18
] and [
19
]. Since the notations and con-
ventions used in the first article differs from those in the
other two articles, the notations and conventions of this
paper are a mix of the two types.
The system in consideration is a BBH system in the PN
approximation. It consists of two BHs of masses
m1
and
m2
such that the relative separation vector of the first
BH from the second one is
R
. We choose to work in the
center-of-mass frame throughout wherein the momenta
of the first BH is equal to the negative of the other and
is represented by
P
. The total angular momenta of the
BBH system is
J

, where
L

S1
and
S2
are the spin angular momenta of the two BHs.
We also define the total mass

represent the physical time with

is reserved for the scaled time. Dots represent a derivative
taken with respect to
