Accurate Evolutions of Orbiting Black-Hole Binaries without Excision
TL;DR: A new algorithm for evolving orbiting black-hole binaries that does not require excision or a corotating shift is presented and fourth-order convergence of waveforms is shown and the radiated gravitational energy and angular momentum from the plunge is computed.
