Colliding black holes from a null point of view: the close limit
Abstract
We present a characteristic algorithm for computing the perturbations of a Schwarzschild spacetime by means of solving the Teukolsky equations. Our methods and results are expected to have direct bearing on the study of binary black holes presently underway using a fully nonlinear characteristic code Gomez98a.
