Recoiling from a kick in the head-on collision of spinning black holes

Dae-Il Choi, Bernard J. Kelly, William D. Boggs +3

Recoil ``kicks'' induced by gravitational radiation are expected in the inspiral and merger of black holes. Recently the numerical relativity community has begun to measure the sig…

Binary black hole late inspiral: Simulations for gravitational wave observations

John G. Baker, Sean T. McWilliams, James R. van Meter +4

Coalescing binary black hole mergers are expected to be the strongest gravitational wave sources for ground-based interferometers, such as the LIGO, VIRGO, and GEO600, as well as t…

How to move a black hole without excision: gauge conditions for the numerical evolution of a moving puncture

James R. van Meter, John G. Baker, Michael Koppitz +1

Recent demonstrations of unexcised black holes traversing across computational grids represent a significant advance in numerical relativity. Stable and accurate simulations of mul…

Getting a kick out of numerical relativity

John G. Baker, Joan Centrella, Dae-Il Choi +3

Recent developments in numerical relativity have made it possible to follow reliably the coalescence of two black holes from near the innermost stable circular orbit to final ringd…

Binary black hole merger dynamics and waveforms

John G. Baker, Joan Centrella, Dae-Il Choi +2

We study dynamics and radiation generation in the last few orbits and merger of a binary black hole system, applying recently developed techniques for simulations of moving black h…

Gravitational wave extraction from an inspiraling configuration of merging black holes

John G. Baker, Joan Centrella, Dae-Il Choi +2

We present new techniqes for evolving binary black hole systems which allow the accurate determination of gravitational waveforms directly from the wave zone region of the numerica…
