Cross section, final spin and zoom-whirl behavior in high-energy black hole collisions
U. Sperhake, V. Cardoso, F. Pretorius +3
We study the collision of two highly boosted equal mass, nonrotating black holes with generic impact parameter. We find such systems to exhibit zoom-whirl behavior when fine tuning…

Two timescale analysis of extreme mass ratio inspirals in Kerr. I. Orbital Motion
Tanja Hinderer, Eanna E. Flanagan
Inspirals of stellar mass compact objects into massive black holes are an important source for future gravitational wave detectors such as Advanced LIGO and LISA. Detection of thes…
