The dynamics of spherically symmetric black holes in scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity with a Ricci coupling

We study the dynamics of spherically symmetric black holes in scalar Gauss-Bonnet gravity with an additional coupling between the scalar field and the Ricci scalar using non-linear simulations that employ excision. In this class of theories, black holes possess hair if they lie in a specific mass range, in which …
