Higher-dimensional numerical relativity: Formulation and code tests |
In this talk, I would like to report our current status of development of higher-dimensional numerical relativity codes. Gravity in higher dimensions is an important issue especially in the context of scenarios with large extra dimensions, and there are a lot of issues to be explored using the numerical relativity such as mini black hole production in colliders. We have extended the BSSN formulation and the Cartoon method higher dimensions, and have developed several codes using the extended formulations. Our method works well and provides an important tool to study gravity in higher dimensions. |
