Numerical simulation of orbiting black holes
Abstract
We present numerical simulations of binary black hole systems, which for the first time last for about one orbital period for close but still separate black holes as indicated by the absence of a common apparent horizon. An important part of the method is the construction of commoving coordinates in which both the angular and radial motion is minimized through a dynamically adjusted shift condition. We use fixed mesh refinement for computational efficiency.Keywords
