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…

Breit-Wigner resonances and the quasinormal modes of anti-de Sitter black holes
Emanuele Berti, Vitor Cardoso, Paolo Pani
The purpose of this short communication is to show that the theory of Breit-Wigner resonances can be used as an efficient numerical tool to compute black hole quasinormal modes. Fo…
