A numerical examination of an evolving black string horizon
D. Garfinkle, L. Lehner, F. Pretorius
We use the numerical solution describing the evolution of a perturbed black string presented in Choptuik et al. (2003) to elucidate the intrinsic behavior of the horizon. It is fou…
Gravitational collapse in anti de Sitter space
David Garfinkle
A numerical and analytic treatment is presented here of the evolution of initial data of the kind that was conjectured by Hertog, Horowitz and Maeda to lead to a violation of cosmi…
The nature of gravitational singularities
David Garfinkle
The nature of gravitational singularities, long mysterious, has now become clear through a combination of mathematical and numerical analysis. As the singularity is approached, the…
The fine structure of Gowdy spacetimes
David Garfinkle
The approach to the singularity in Gowdy spacetimes consists of velocity term dominated behavior, except at a set of isolated points. At and near these points, spiky features grow.…
Numerical simulation of a possible counterexample to cosmic censorship
David Garfinkle
A numerical simulation is presented here of the evolution of initial data of the kind that was conjectured by Hertog, Horowitz and Maeda to be a violation of cosmic censorship. Tha…
