Foil 33 Characteristic Surfaces and Key Features of Pittsburgh Approach

From Numerical Formulation and Solution of Collision 0f two Black Holes CPSP713 Case studies in Computational Science -- Spring Semester 1996. by Geoffrey C. Fox
Key features of Pittsburgh Approach
  • Use Characteristic Surfaces instead of spacial surfaces
    • Spacial: fixed time
    • Characteristic: fixed t+r or t-r
  • Compactification -- Map infinity (where waves sought) to finite point)
