General-Relativistic Simulations of Three-Dimensional Core-Collapse Supernovae

C. D. Ott, E. Abdikamalov, P. Moesta +6

We study the three-dimensional (3D) hydrodynamics of the post-core-bounce phase of the collapse of a 27-solar-mass star and pay special attention to the development of the standing…

Forced motion near black holes

Jonathan R. Gair, Eanna E. Flanagan, Steve Drasco +2

We present two methods for integrating forced geodesic equations in the Kerr spacetime, which can accommodate arbitrary forces. As a test case, we compute inspirals under a simple…

Towards adiabatic waveforms for inspiral into Kerr black holes: II. Dynamical sources and generic orbits

Pranesh A. Sundararajan, Gaurav Khanna, Scott A. Hughes +1

This is the second in a series of papers whose aim is to generate ``adiabatic'' gravitational waveforms from the inspiral of stellar-mass compact objects into massive black holes.…

Verifying black hole orbits with gravitational spectroscopy

Steve Drasco

Gravitational waves from test masses bound to geodesic orbits of rotating black holes are simulated, using Teukolsky's black hole perturbation formalism, for about ten thousand gen…

Strategies for observing extreme mass ratio inspirals

Steve Drasco

I review the status of research, conducted by a variety of independent groups, aimed at the eventual observation of Extreme Mass Ratio Inspirals (EMRIs) with gravitational wave det…

Gravitational wave snapshots of generic extreme mass ratio inspirals

Steve Drasco, Scott A. Hughes

Using black hole perturbation theory, we calculate the gravitational waves produced by test particles moving on bound geodesic orbits about rotating black holes. The orbits we cons…
