Binary Inspirals in Nordström's Second Theory
Travis Garrett
We investigate Nordström's second theory of gravitation, with a focus on utilizing it as a testbed for developing techniques in numerical relativity. Numerical simulations of inspi…
The Observer Class Hypothesis
Travis Garrett
The discovery of a small cosmological constant has stimulated interest in the measure problem. One should expect to be a typical observer, but defining such a thing is difficult in…
Magnetospheres of Black Hole Systems in Force-Free Plasma
Carlos Palenzuela, Travis Garrett, Luis Lehner +1
The interaction of black holes with ambient magnetic fields is important for a variety of highly energetic astrophysical phenomena. We study this interaction within the force-free…
A Simple, Direct Finite Differencing of the Einstein Equations
Travis Garrett
We investigate a simple variation of the Generalized Harmonic method for evolving the Einstein equations. A flat space wave equation for metric perturbations is separated from the…
