On Toroidal Horizons in Binary Black Hole Inspirals
Michael I. Cohen, Jeffrey D. Kaplan, Mark A. Scheel
We examine the structure of the event horizon for numerical simulations of two black holes that begin in a quasicircular orbit, inspiral, and finally merge. We find that the spatia…

Visualizing Spacetime Curvature via Frame-Drag Vortexes and Tidal Tendexes I. General Theory and Weak-Gravity Applications
David A. Nichols, Robert Owen, Fan Zhang +8
When one splits spacetime into space plus time, the Weyl curvature tensor (vacuum Riemann tensor) gets split into two spatial, symmetric, and trace-free (STF) tensors: (i) the Weyl…
