Foil 22 5:Modeling Black Holes

From Overview of BBH Simulations Physics Colloquium -- Oct 29 1998. by Scott Klasky


Eventually outer boundary will be matched to an exterior evolution code that evolves the geometry along outgoing characteristics
  • Code will extract radiation waveforms
  • Evolve data out to "future null infinity"
  • Null code exists and can evolve black hole spacetimes "forever" or 60,000M. However stabily matching the two codes is a problem and once that is resolved we can utilize that module as an outer boundary condition on our Cauchy evolution.
