High-velocity collision of two black holes

Masaru Shibata, Hirotada Okawa, Tetsuro Yamamoto

We study nonaxisymmetric collision of two black holes (BHs) with a high velocity -- at infinity, where denotes four-dimensional coordinates. We prepa…

Merger of black hole and neutron star in general relativity: Tidal disruption, torus mass, and gravitational waves

Masaru Shibata, Keisuke Taniguchi

We systematically perform the merger simulation of black hole-neutron star (BH-NS) binaries in full general relativity, focusing on the case that the NS is tidally disrupted. We pr…

Dynamical Bar Instability in Relativistic Rotating Stars

Motoyuki Saijo, Masaru Shibata, Thomas W. Baumgarte +1

We study by computational means the dynamical stability against bar-mode deformation of rapidly and differentially rotating stars in a post-Newtonian approximation of general relat…
