Moving black holes in 3D
نویسندگان
چکیده
We model a radiating, moving black hole in terms of a worldtube–null-cone boundary value problem. We evolve this data in the region interior to the worldtube, but exterior to a trapped surface by means of a characteristic evolution based upon a family of ingoing null hypersurfaces. Data on the worldtube is induced from a Schwarzschild spacetime, but the worldtube is allowed to move relative to the static Schwarzschild trajectories. When the worldtube is stationary ~static or rotating in place!, a distorted black hole inside it evolves to equilibrium with the Schwarzschild boundary. A boost of the worldtube with respect to the Schwarzschild black hole does not affect these results. The code also stably tracks an unlimited number of orbits, when the worldtube wobbles periodically. The work establishes that characteristic evolution can evolve a spacetime with a distorted black hole moving on a 3-dimensional grid with the controlled accuracy and long term stability necessary to investigate new facets of black hole physics. @S0556-2821~98!00310-5#

The C-metric is one of few known exact solutions of Einstein's field equations which describes the gravitational field of moving sources. For a vanishing or positive cosmological constant, the C-metric represents two accelerated black holes in asymptotically flat or de Sitter spacetime. For a negative cosmological constant the structure of the spacetime is more complicated. Depending on the val...
متن کاملTowards Simulations of 3d Black Hole Coalescence
I review recent developments in numerical relativity, focussing on progress made in 3D black hole evolution. Progress in development of black hole initial data, apparent horizon boundary conditions, adaptive mesh refinement, and characteristic evolution is highlighted, as well as full 3D simulations of colliding and distorted black holes. For true 3D distorted holes, with Cauchy evolution techn...
متن کاملKerr black hole in the class of axisymmetric artificial black holes .
Perturbations of the Kerr black hole in the class of axisymmetric artificial black holes. Abstract Artificial black holes (called also acoustic or optical black holes) are the black holes for the linear wave equation describing the wave propagation in a moving medium. They attracted a considerable interest of physicists who study them to better understand the black holes in general relativity. ...

We treat the model which describes “extreme black holes” moving slowly. We derive an effective lagrangian in the low energy for this model and then investigate a statistical behavior of “extreme black holes” in the finite temperature.
