Critical phenomena in gravitational collapse
Patrick R Brady, Mike J Cai
This article reviews classical and quantum aspects of critical phenomena in gravitational collapse. We pay special attention to the origin of the scaling law for black hole mass, a…
Searching for periodic sources with LIGO. II: Hierarchical searches
Patrick R Brady, Teviet Creighton
The detection of quasi-periodic sources of gravitational waves requires the accumulation of signal-to-noise over long observation times. If not removed, Earth-motion induced Dopple…
The late-time singularity inside non-spherical black holes
Patrick R Brady, Serge Droz, Sharon M Morsink
It was long believed that the singularity inside a realistic, rotating black hole must be spacelike. However, studies of the internal geometry of black holes indicate a more compli…
Quantum corrections to critical phenomena in gravitational collapse
Patrick R Brady, Adrian C Ottewill
We investigate conformally coupled quantum matter fields on spherically symmetric, continuously self-similar backgrounds. By exploiting the symmetry associated with the self-simila…
Computing the merger of black-hole binaries: the IBBH problem
Patrick R. Brady, Jolien D. E. Creighton, Kip S. Thorne
Gravitational radiation arising from the inspiral and merger of binary black holes (BBH's) is a promising candidate for detection by kilometer-scale interferometric gravitational w…
Cosmic Censorship: As Strong As Ever
Patrick R. Brady, Ian G. Moss, Robert C. Myers
Spacetimes which have been considered counter-examples to strong cosmic censorship are revisited. We demonstrate the classical instability of the Cauchy horizon inside charged blac…
