Event Horizons in Numerical Relativity II: Analyzing the Horizon
Joan Masso, Edward Seidel, Wai-Mo Suen, Paul Walker
Abstract
We present techniques and methods for analyzing the dynamics of event horizons in numerically constructed spacetimes. There are three classes of analytical tools we have investigated. The first class consists of proper geometrical measures of the horizon which allow us comparison with perturbation theory and powerful global theorems. The second class involves the location and study of horizon generators. The third class includes the induced horizon 2-metric in the generator comoving coordinates and a set of membrane-paradigm like quantities. Applications to several distorted, rotating, and colliding black hole spacetimes are provided as examples of these techniques.
