Relativistic Simulations of Black Hole-Neutron Star Mergers: Effects of black-hole spin
Zachariah B. Etienne, Yuk Tung Liu, Stuart L. Shapiro +1
Black hole-neutron star (BHNS) binary mergers are candidate engines for generating both short-hard gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs) and detectable gravitational waves. Using our most recen…
Excision boundary conditions for the conformal metric
Gregory B. Cook, Thomas W. Baumgarte
Shibata, Uryū and Friedman recently suggested a new decomposition of Einstein's equations that is useful for constructing initial data. In contrast to previous decompositions, the…
Equilibrium initial data for moving puncture simulations: The stationary 1+log slicing
T. W. Baumgarte, Z. B. Etienne, Y. T. Liu +4
We propose and explore a "stationary 1+log" slicing condition for the construction of solutions to Einstein's constraint equations. For stationary spacetimes, these initial data wi…
