Extra-Large Remnant Recoil Velocities and Spins from Near-Extremal-Bowen-York-Spin Black-Hole Binaries
Sergio Dain, Carlos O. Lousto, Yosef Zlochower
We evolve equal-mass, equal-spin black-hole binaries with specific spins of a/mH 0.925, the highest spins simulated thus far and nearly the largest possible for Bowen-York black ho…
Foundations of multiple black hole evolutions
Carlos O. Lousto, Yosef Zlochower
We present techniques for long-term, stable, and accurate evolutions of multiple-black-hole spacetimes using the `moving puncture' approach with fourth- and eighth-order finite dif…
Close encounters of three black holes
Manuela Campanelli, Carlos O. Lousto, Yosef Zlochower
We present the first fully relativistic longterm numerical evolutions of three equal-mass black holes in a system consisting of a third black hole in a close orbit about a black-ho…
Implementation of standard testbeds for numerical relativity
M. C. Babiuc, S. Husa, D. Alic +8
We discuss results that have been obtained from the implementation of the initial round of testbeds for numerical relativity which was proposed in the first paper of the Apples wit…
Further insight into gravitational recoil
Carlos O. Lousto, Yosef Zlochower
We test the accuracy of our recently proposed empirical formula to model the recoil velocity imparted to the merger remnant of spinning, unequal-mass black-hole binaries. We study…
Quasi-Local Linear Momentum in Black-Hole Binaries
Badri Krishnan, Carlos O. Lousto, Yosef Zlochower
We propose a quasi-local formula for the linear momentum of black-hole horizons inspired by the formalism of quasi-local horizons. We test this formula using two complementary conf…
