Ready-to-use post-Newtonian gravitational waveforms for binary black holes with nonprecessing spins: An update

For black-hole binaries whose spins are (anti-) aligned with respect to the orbital angular momentum of the binary, we compute the frequency-domain phasing coefficients including the quadratic-in-spin terms up to the third post-Newtonian (3PN) order, the cubic-in-spin terms at the leading order, 3.5PN, and the spin-orbit effects up to the 4PN order. In addition, we obtain the 2PN spin contributions to the amplitude of the frequency-domain gravitational waveforms for nonprecessing binaries, using recently derived expressions for the time-domain polarization amplitudes of binaries with generic spins, complete at that accuracy level. These two results are updates to [K. G. Arun, A. Buonanno, G. Faye, and E. Ochsner, Phys. Rev. D 79, 104023 (2009).] for amplitude and [M. Wade, J. D. E. Creighton, E. Ochsner, and A. B. Nielsen, Phys. Rev. D 88, 083002 (2013).] for phasing. They should be useful for constructing banks of templates that accurately model nonprecessing inspiraling binaries, for parameter estimation studies, and for constructing analytical template families that account for the inspiral-merger-ringdown phases of the binary.
