Critical phenomena in the collapse of quadrupolar and hexadecapolar gravitational waves
Thomas W. Baumgarte, Carsten Gundlach, David Hilditch
We report on numerical simulations of critical phenomena near the threshold of black hole formation in the collapse of axisymmetric gravitational waves in vacuum. We discuss severa…
