the expansion of general relativity in powers of velocity over light speed, used to compute motion and waveforms of compact binaries.

In gravitational physics, post-Newtonian approximation refers to the expansion of general relativity in powers of velocity over light speed, used to compute motion and waveforms of compact binaries. This meaning comes from Blanchet (2014) in Living Reviews in Relativity.[1]
