Scalar Fields in Numerical General Relativity

Abstract: This set of notes was designed to accompany two hours of lectures and practical exercises at the New Horizons for Psi workshop https://strong-gr.com/new-horizons-for-psi, entitled "Studying fundamental fields with numerical relativity".Numerical relativity (NR) is a tool used to help understand the behaviours of metric and matter fields in dynamical, strong gravity situations. It has been used to study a range of situations involving fundamental fields, including superradiance, modified gravity, dynamical fric… Show more

“…However, this process has not been studied beyond the breakdown of perturbation theory. Most treatments of resonance ignore local gravitational effects while fully relativistic solvers [25][26][27] need to resolve the "fast" dynamics of the oscillating field, which is prohibitively expensive.…”

“…more sophisticated numerical approaches (see eg. [23,24]) and more powerful computers, it seems clear that one can go beyond this. For completeness, we also include the spatial profile plots of the scalar at various times in the above cases.…”

“…To validate the code, we have performed convergence studies for both the number of points on the grid and the number of quantum modes used, by computing the L 2norm of the Hamiltonian constraint (see e.g. [33]) and the error in the ADM mass (defined by ∆m ADM (t) = (m ADM (t = 0)−m ADM (t))/m ADM (t = 0)), respectively; see Fig. 2.…”
