abstract

We describe a finite-difference method for locating apparent horizons and illustrate its capabilities on boosted Kerr and Schwarzschild black holes. Our model spacetime is given by the Kerr-Schild metric. We apply a Lorentz boost to this spacetime metric and then carry out a 3+1 decomposition. The result is a slicing of Kerr/Schwarzschild in which the black hole is propagated and Lorentz contracted. We show that our method can locate distorted apparent horizons efficiently and accurately.

General Boosted Black Holes: A First Approximation

gr-qc · 2025-08-13 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

An approximate solution for a general boosted Kerr-Newman black hole is derived from a BMS twisting metric, shown to satisfy Einstein equations up to 1/r^4, with analysis of horizons, ergosphere, and electromagnetic fields for a timelike observer.
