Massively parallel simulations of binary black holes with Dendro-GR

Milinda Fernando, David Neilsen, Yosef Zlochower +2

We present results from the new Dendro-GR code. These include simulations of binary black hole mergers for mass ratios up to q=16. Dendro-GR uses Wavelet Adaptive Multi-Resolution…

Massively Parallel Simulations of Binary Black Hole Intermediate-Mass-Ratio Inspirals

Milinda Fernando, David Neilsen, Hyun Lim +2

We present a highly-scalable framework that targets problems of interest to the numerical relativity and broader astrophysics communities. This framework combines a parallel octree…

Black Hole Dynamics in Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton Theory

Eric W. Hirschmann, Luis Lehner, Steven L. Liebling +1

We consider the properties and dynamics of black holes within a family of alternative theories of gravity, namely Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton (EMD) theory. We analyze the dynamical ev…

Chaotic orbits for spinning particles in Schwarzschild spacetime

Chris Verhaaren, Eric W. Hirschmann

We consider the orbits of particles with spin in the Schwarzschild spacetime. Using the Papapetrou-Dixon equations of motion for spinning particles, we solve for the orbits and foc…

Magnetized Neutron Star Mergers and Gravitational Wave Signals

Matthew Anderson, Eric W. Hirschmann, Luis Lehner +5

We investigate the influence of magnetic fields upon the dynamics of and resulting gravitational waves from a binary neutron star merger in full general relativity coupled to ideal…

Simulating binary neutron stars: dynamics and gravitational waves

Matthew Anderson, Eric W. Hirschmann, Luis Lehner +5

We model two mergers of orbiting binary neutron stars, the first forming a black hole and the second a differentially rotating neutron star. We extract gravitational waveforms in t…
