Journal ArticleDOI
Black-hole normal modes: A WKB approach. I. Foundations and application of a higher-order WKB analysis of potential-barrier scattering.
Sai Iyer,Clifford M. Will +1 more
TL;DR: A semianalytic technique for determining the complex normal-mode frequencies of black holes using the WKB approximation, carried to third order beyond the eikonal approximation, which may find uses in barrier-tunneling problems in atomic and nuclear physics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Black-hole normal modes: A WKB approach. II. Schwarzschild black holes
TL;DR: A semianalytic technique is employed, based on a modified WKB approach, to determine the complex normal-mode frequencies of Schwarzschild black holes, and the WKB estimates agree with numerical results to better than 0.5%.
Journal ArticleDOI
Three-dimensional numerical general relativistic hydrodynamics. II. Long-term dynamics of single relativistic stars
José A. Font,Tom Goodale,Sai Iyer,Mark J. Miller,Luciano Rezzolla,Edward Seidel,Nikolaos Stergioulas,Wai Mo Suen,Wai Mo Suen,Malcolm Tobias +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a three-dimensional code for the solution of the coupled system of the Einstein equations and of the general relativistic hydrodynamic equations, and on the application of this code to problems in general astrophysics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Black-hole normal modes: A WKB approach. IV. Kerr black holes
Edward Seidel,Sai Iyer +1 more
TL;DR: Using the higher-order WKB method developed by Iyer and Will, the low-lying normal modes of Kerr black holes for both scalar and gravitational perturbations are computed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Post-Newtonian diagnosis of quasiequilibrium configurations of neutron star neutron star and neutron star black hole binaries
TL;DR: In this article, a post-Newtonian diagnostic tool was used to examine numerically generated quasiequilibrium initial data sets for nonspinning double neutron star and neutron star-black hole binary systems.
