Learning about compact binary merger: the interplay between numerical relativity and gravitational-wave astronomy
Thomas Baumgarte, Patrick Brady, Jolien D E Creighton +3
Activities in data analysis and numerical simulation of gravitational waves have to date largely proceeded independently. In this work we study how waveforms obtained from numerica…
Inspiral, merger and ring-down of equal-mass black-hole binaries
Alessandra Buonanno, Gregory B. Cook, Frans Pretorius
We investigate the dynamics and gravitational-wave (GW) emission in the binary merger of equal-mass black holes as obtained from numerical relativity simulations. Results from the…
Simulation of Binary Black Hole Spacetimes with a Harmonic Evolution Scheme
Frans Pretorius
A numerical solution scheme for the Einstein field equations based on generalized harmonic coordinates is described, focusing on details not provided before in the literature and t…
