abstract
We present new techniqes for evolving binary black hole systems which allow the accurate determination of gravitational waveforms directly from the wave zone region of the numerical simulations. Rather than excising the black hole interiors, our approach follows the "puncture" treatment of black holes, but utilzing a new gauge condition which allows the black holes to move successfully through the computational domain. We apply these techniques to an inspiraling binary, modeling the radiation generated during the final plunge and ringdown. We demonstrate convergence of the waveforms and good conservation of mass-energy, with just over 3% of the system's mass converted to gravitional radiation.

Quasinormal mode excitation in black hole ringdown equals the Fourier transform of the perturbation evaluated at the mode frequency, so black holes act as resonant spectral filters.
Ultra-relativistic black hole flybys can radiate over 65% of their energy in gravitational waves via irregular waveforms caused by radiation trapping and lensing, without coalescence.
Numerical relativity in the decoupling limit reveals dynamical scalarization and spin-induced (de)scalarization during hyperbolic black hole encounters for both signs of the coupling.
High-resolution GR neutrino-radiation MHD simulation of 1.35-1.35 Msun BNS merger shows KHI-driven B-field amplification to magnetar levels (~10^50 erg, factor >=316) in 3 ms post-merger.
Head-on black-hole mergers next to a companion show Doppler- and redshift-shifted ringdown, lensing magnification behind the lens, and delayed echo images, with only tentative signs of resonant mode excitation.
GW250114 data constrains GR deviations in merger amplitude to 10% and frequency to 4% at 90% CL, with first bounds on the (4,4) mode frequency at 6%.
Scattering black holes gain spin and mass by absorbing emitted gravitational radiation, with spin-up up to 0.3 and mass gain up to 15% in near-threshold encounters.
Semi-analytic waveform model for scalar environments around black hole binaries is validated against numerical relativity and applied to LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA data to obtain upper limits on scalar densities with tentative evidence in GW190728.
GW250114 data confirm the remnant is consistent with a Kerr black hole and bound the dominant quadrupolar mode frequency to within a few percent of the GR prediction, with constraints tighter than prior multi-event catalogs.
A closed formula computes static post-Newtonian corrections at arbitrary odd orders in gravity, yielding the explicit seventh post-Newtonian potential that matches an independent diagrammatic method.
Simulations in Einstein-scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity show oscillons form with similar properties to standard cases but trigger EFT breakdown for large couplings via high local curvatures.
Head-on binary black hole simulations in EMDA theory show dilaton and axion fields persist through merger, indicating nonlinear stability of Kerr-Sen black holes and scalarization of initially unscalarized solutions.
Presents cavity-based effective descriptions for scalar radiation from black holes and modified models, linking them to wave profiles and accumulated phase shifts for detecting small deviations from classical behavior.
A grid-based multi-grid Poisson solver is implemented in numerical relativity, tested on puncture black holes and neutron stars, and used in a neutrino-radiation hydrodynamics simulation of 9 solar mass star collapse up to core bounce with high conservation accuracy.
Numerical relativity solved the general-relativistic two-body problem in the mid-2000s, supplying the waveform models that enabled LIGO's first gravitational-wave detections.
Quasinormal modes are eigenmodes of dissipative gravitational systems whose spectra encode near-equilibrium transport coefficients in dual quantum field theories and enable tests of general relativity through gravitational wave observations.
