Description
The use of quasi-circular effective-one-body waveforms in Bayesian mock analyses of signals from eccentric binary neutron star mergers can lead to signal-to-noise losses and to significant deviations in the inference of the chirp mass, the mass ratio and the effective spin, yielding incorrect and ambiguous source identification. The inclusion of spin precession in the quasi-circular waveform also fails to capture eccentricity effects.
