Evolving Metric Perturbations in dynamical Chern-Simons Gravity

Maria Okounkova, Mark A. Scheel, Saul A. Teukolsky

We present a well-posed constraint-preserving scheme for evolving first-order metric perturbations on an arbitrary background with arbitrary source. We use this scheme to evolve th…

A high-order, conservative integrator with local time-stepping

William Throwe, Saul A. Teukolsky

We present a family of multistep integrators based on the Adams-Bashforth methods. These schemes can be constructed for arbitrary convergence order with arbitrary step size variati…

Numerical black hole initial data and shadows in dynamical Chern-Simons gravity

Maria Okounkova, Mark A. Scheel, Saul A. Teukolsky

We present a scheme for generating first-order metric perturbation initial data for an arbitrary background and source. We then apply this scheme to derive metric perturbations in…

Constraining the parameters of GW150914 & GW170104 with numerical relativity surrogates

Prayush Kumar, Jonathan Blackman, Scott E. Field +7

Gravitational-wave detectors have begun to observe coalescences of heavy black holes at a consistent pace for the past few years. Accurate models of gravitational waveforms are ess…

General-relativistic neutron star evolutions with the discontinuous Galerkin method

François Hébert, Lawrence E. Kidder, Saul A. Teukolsky

Simulations of relativistic hydrodynamics often need both high accuracy and robust shock-handling properties. The discontinuous Galerkin method combines these features --- a high o…

Critical behavior in 3-d gravitational collapse of massless scalar fields

Nils Deppe, Lawrence E. Kidder, Mark A. Scheel +1

We present results from the first study of critical behavior in 3-d gravitational collapse. The source of the gravitational field is a massless scalar field. This is a well-studied…
