Toroidal horizons in binary black hole inspirals
We examine the structure of the event horizon for numerical simulations of two black holes that begin in a quasicircular orbit, inspiral, and finally merge. We find that the spatial cross section of the merged event horizon has spherical topology (to the limit of our resolution), despite the expectation that generic binary black hole mergers in the absence of symmetries should result in an even...
متن کاملFalling into a black hole
String theory tells us that quantum gravity has a dual description as a field theory (without gravity). We use the field theory dual to ask what happens to an object as it falls into the simplest black hole: the 2-charge extremal hole. In the field theory description the wavefunction of a particle is spread over a large number of ‘loops’, and the particle has a well-defined position in space on...
متن کاملObserve matter falling into a black hole
It has been well known that in the point of view of a distant observer, all in-falling matter to a black hole (BH) will be eventually stalled and “frozen” just outside the event horizon of the BH, although an in-falling observer will see the matter falling straight through the event horizon. Thus in this “frozen star” scenario, as distant observers, we could never observe matter falling into a ...
متن کاملThin Disk Accreting Into a Black Hole
A numerical model of a steady state, thin accretion disk with a constant effective speed of sound is presented. We demonstrate that 'zero torque' inner boundary condition is a reasonable approximation provided that the disk thickness, including the thickness of the torquing magnetic fields, is small everywhere. It is likely that this conclusion is correct also for non-steady disks, as long as t...
متن کاملGravitational Recoil Velocities from Eccentric Binary Black Hole Mergers
The formation and growth of supermassive black holes is a key issue to unveil the secrets of galaxy formation. In particular, the gravitational recoil produced in the merger of unequal mass black hole binaries could have a number of astrophysical implications, such as the ejection of black holes from the host galaxy or globular cluster. We present estimates of the recoil velocity that include t...
