Puncture black hole initial data: a single domain Galerkin-Collocation method for trumpet and wormhole data sets
arXiv:1703.09131 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.96.024035
Abstract
We present a single domain Galerkin-Collocation method to calculate puncture initial data sets for single and binary, either in the trumpet or wormhole geometries. The combination of aspects belonging to the Galerkin and the Collocation methods together with the adoption of spherical coordinates in all cases show to be very effective. We have proposed a unified expression for the conformal factor to describe trumpet and spinning black holes. In particular, for the spinning trumpet black holes, we have exhibited the deformation of the limit surface due to the spin from a sphere to an oblate spheroid. We have also revisited the energy content in the trumpet and wormhole puncture data sets. The algorithm can be extended to describe binary black holes.
