Dynamical Excision Boundaries in Spectral Evolutions of Binary Black Hole Spacetimes

Daniel A. Hemberger, Mark A. Scheel, Lawrence E. Kidder +4

Simulations of binary black hole systems using the Spectral Einstein Code (SpEC) are done on a computational domain that excises the regions inside the black holes. It is imperativ…

Search for Gravitational Waves from Binary Black Hole Inspiral, Merger and Ringdown in LIGO-Virgo Data from 2009-2010

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +800

We report a search for gravitational waves from the inspiral, merger and ringdown of binary black holes (BBH) with total mass between 25 and 100 solar masses, in data taken at the…

Visualizing Spacetime Curvature via Frame-Drag Vortexes and Tidal Tendexes II. Stationary Black Holes

Fan Zhang, Aaron Zimmerman, David A. Nichols +5

When one splits spacetime into space plus time, the Weyl curvature tensor (which equals the Riemann tensor in vacuum) splits into two spatial, symmetric, traceless tensors: the tid…

Divide-and-Conquer 3D Convex Hulls on the GPU

Jeffrey M. White, Kevin A. Wortman

We describe a pure divide-and-conquer parallel algorithm for computing 3D convex hulls. We implement that algorithm on GPU hardware, and find a significant speedup over comparable…

A Durable Flash Memory Search Tree

James Clay, Kevin Wortman

We consider the task of optimizing the B-tree data structure, used extensively in operating systems and databases, for sustainable usage on multi-level flash memory. Empirical evid…
