The collision of boosted black holes
arXiv:gr-qc/9608064 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.55.829
Abstract
We study the radiation from a collision of black holes with equal and opposite linear momenta. Results are presented from a full numerical relativity treatment and are compared with the results from a ``close-slow'' approximation. The agreement is remarkable, and suggests several insights about the generation of gravitational radiation in black hole collisions.
