Numerical Simulations of Black Holes
Frank Herrmann

Abstract:
Numerical Relativity has made remarkable progress in the
last years. In 2005 stable binary black hole simulations became first
possible and since then a number of different aspects of this system
have been studied. I will review different techniques in use today and
describe comparison studies to post-Newtonian methods as well as
results regarding the recoil the single black hole formed in a generic
merger receives. |
