Calibration of moving puncture simulations

Calibration of moving puncture simulations

We present single and binary black-hole simulations that follow the ``moving-puncture'' paradigm of simulating black-hole spacetimes without excision, and use ``moving boxes'' mesh refinement. Focusing on binary black-hole configurations where the simulations cover roughly two orbits, we address five major issues determining the quality of our results: numerical discretization error, …
