Quasi-Periodicity of Supermassive Binary Black Hole Accretion Approaching Merger
Dennis B. Bowen, Vassilios Mewes, Scott C. Noble +3
In this paper we continue the first ever study of magnetized mini-disks coupled to circumbinary accretion in a supermassive binary black hole (SMBBH) approaching merger reported in…
Quasi-Periodic Behavior of Mini-Disks in Binary Black Holes Approaching Merger
Dennis B. Bowen, Vassilios Mewes, Manuela Campanelli +3
We present the first magnetohydrodynamic simulation in which a circumbinary disk around a relativistic binary black hole feeds mass to individual accretion disks ("mini-disks") aro…
A Parameter Estimation Method that Directly Compares Gravitational Wave Observations to Numerical Relativity
Jacob Lange, Richard O'Shaughnessy, Michael Boyle +23
We present and assess a Bayesian method to interpret gravitational wave signals from binary black holes. Our method directly compares gravitational wave data to numerical relativit…
Perturbative effects of spinning black holes with applications to recoil velocities
Hiroyuki Nakano, Manuela Campanelli, Carlos O. Lousto +1
Recently, we proposed an enhancement of the Regge-Wheeler-Zerilli formalism for first-order perturbations about a Schwarzschild background that includes first-order corrections due…
Modeling Gravitational Recoil Using Numerical Relativity
Yosef Zlochower, Manuela Campanelli, Carlos O. Lousto
We review the developments in modeling gravitational recoil from merging black-hole binaries and introduce a new set of 20 simulations to test our previously proposed empirical for…
Comparison of Post-Newtonian and Numerical Evolutions of Black-Hole Binaries
Hiroyuki Nakano, Manuela Campanelli, Carlos O. Lousto +1
In this paper, we compare the waveforms from the post-Newtonian (PN) approach with the numerical simulations of generic black-hole binaries which have mass ratio , arbitr…
