Gravitational waves from black-hole mergers

摘要:

对于地基干涉仪和天基干涉仪LISA来说,合并的黑洞双星被认为是最强的引力波源。数值相对论的最新进展使得计算强场动力学并合的波形成为可能,并且正在彻底改变我们对这些系统的理解。我们回顾这些戏剧性的发展,强调应用的问题,在引力波观测。这些新的能力也使得当合并的成分具有不相等的质量,或者不相等或不对齐的自旋时,精确计算给予最终残余黑洞的反冲或反冲成为可能。我们强调最近在这一领域的工作,专注于感兴趣的天体物理学的结果。

英文摘要:

Coalescing black-hole binaries are expected to be the strongest sources of gravitational waves for ground-based interferometers as well as the space-based interferometer LISA. Recent progress in numerical relativity now makes it possible to calculate the waveforms from the strong-field dynamical merger and is revolutionizing our understanding of these systems. We review these dramatic developments, emphasizing applications to issues in gravitational wave observations. These new capabilities also make possible accurate calculations of the recoil or kick imparted to the final remnant black hole when the merging components have unequal masses, or unequal or unaligned spins. We highlight recent work in this area, focusing on results of interest to astrophysics.
