Abstract
We exhibit an initial-value formulation of the worldline quantum field theory




(WQFT) approach to the classical two-body problem in general relativity. We




show that the Schwinger-Keldysh (in-in) formalism leads to purely retarded




propagators in the evaluation of observables in the WQFT. Integration




technology for retarded master integrals is introduced at third




post-Minkowskian (3PM) order. As an application we compute the complete




radiation-reacted impulse and radiated four momentum for the scattering of two




non-spinning neutron stars including tidal effects at 3PM order, as well as the




leading (2PM) far-field gravitational waveform.
