Complex angular momentum in black hole physics and quasinormal modes [PDF]
, 2003 By using the complex angular momentum approach, we prove that the quasinormal mode complex frequencies of the Schwarzschild black hole are Breit-Wigner type resonances generated by a family of surface waves propagating close to the unstable circular ...

Mining for Observables: A New Challenge in Numerical Relativity [PDF]
, 2006 One of the motivations behind numerical relativity is to provide gravitational wave signals of compact objects to observers using the new gravitational wave detectors.

Intermediate Mass Ratio Black Hole Binaries: Numerical Relativity meets Perturbation Theory
, 2010 We study black-hole binaries in the intermediate-mass-ratio regime 0.01 < q < 0.1 with a new technique that makes use of nonlinear numerical trajectories and efficient perturbative evolutions to compute waveforms at large radii for the leading and ...

Binary black hole mergers: large kicks for generic spin orientations [PDF]
, 2007 We present results from several simulations of equal mass black holes with spin. The spin magnitudes are $S/m^2=0.8$ in all cases, but we vary the spin orientations arbitrarily, in and outside the orbital plane. We find that in all but one case the final

Galactic Collapse of Scalar Field Dark Matter
, 2001 We present a scenario for galaxy formation based on the hypothesis of scalar field dark matter. We interpret galaxy formation through the collapse of a scalar field fluctuation.

Potential flows in a core-dipole-shell system: numerical results [PDF]
, 2002 Numerical solutions for: the integral curves of the velocity field (streamlines), the density contours, and the accretion rate of a steady-state flow of an ideal fluid with p=K n^(gamma) equation of state orbiting in a core-dipole-shell system are ...

General Relativistic Decompression of Binary Neutron Stars During Dynamic Inspiral
, 2007 We investigate the dynamic stability of inspiraling neutron stars by performing multiple-orbit numerical relativity simulations of the binary neutron star inspiral process.

Gravitational wave extraction and outer boundary conditions by perturbative matching [PDF]
, 1997 We present a method for extracting gravitational radiation from a three-dimensional numerical relativity simulation and, using the extracted data, to provide outer boundary conditions.

Instability of an "Approximate Black Hole" [PDF]
, 1997 We investigate the stability of a family of spherically symmetric static solutions in vacuum Brans-Dicke theory (with $\omega=0$) recently described by van Putten.

Numerical evidence for `multi-scalar stars' [PDF]
, 2002 We present a class of general relativistic soliton-like solutions composed of multiple minimally coupled, massive, real scalar fields which interact only through the gravitational field.
