Metric perturbations produced by eccentric equatorial orbits around a Kerr black hole
We present the first numerical calculation of the (local) metric perturbation produced by a small compact object moving on an eccentric equatorial geodesic around a Kerr black hole, accurate to first order in the mass ratio. The procedure starts by first solving the Teukolsky equation to obtain the Weyl scalar ψ4 using semi-analytical methods. The metric perturbation is then reconstructed from ...
متن کاملGravitational self-force on eccentric equatorial orbits around a Kerr black hole
This paper presents the first calculation of the gravitational self-force on a small compact object on an eccentric equatorial orbit around a Kerr black hole to first order in the mass-ratio. That is the pointwise correction to the object’s equations of motion (both conservative and dissipative) due to its own gravitational field, which is treated as a linear perturbation to the background Kerr...
متن کاملRadiative Evolution of Orbits around a Kerr Black Hole
We propose a simple approach for the radiative evolution of generic orbits around a Kerr black hole. For a scalar-field, we recover the standard results for the evolution of the energy E and the azimuthal angular momentum Lz . In addition, our method provides a closed expression for the evolution of the Carter constant Q. Recently, the prospects of a direct observation of gravitational radiatio...
متن کاملNon-axisymmetric relativistic Bondi-Hoyle accretion onto a Kerr black hole
In our program of studying numerically the so-called Bondi-Hoyle accretion in the fully relativistic regime, we present here first results concerning the evolution of matter accreting supersonically onto a rotating (Kerr) black hole. These computations generalize previous results where the non-rotating (Schwarzschild) case was extensively considered. We parametrize our initial data by the asymp...
متن کاملBoosted Kerr black hole
Initial data for boosted Kerr black hole are constructed in an axially symmetric case. Momentum and hamiltonian constraints are solved numerically using finite element method (FEM) algorithms. Both BowenYork and puncture boundary conditions are adopted and appropriate results are compared. Past and future apparent horizons are also found numerically and the Penrose inequality is tested in detai...
