A.1 Development of CACTUS • Training in the use of the Cactus code for the entire Network (all teams, 12 months). • Done. Training was carried out in December, 2000, at AEI during the first meeting, and again in Greece at our second meeting in June, 2001. • Tutorials on the web • Cactus team actively supporting Network • Incorporation of more efficient elliptic solvers into Cactus (AEI, UIB, 24 months). • The Petsc library, and a set of iterative solvers developed at NCSA and the U of Kansas are presently being made available in Cactus. www.eu-network.org Sources of Gravitational Radiation
Continued testing of algorithms of adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) provided by DAGH (AEI, UIB, 12 months). • DAGH AMR capability has been shown to work with Cactus on test cases, and is being further developed at AEI and WashU. • Several other AMR systems under development in Cactus • Cartpet (E. Schnetter, Tübingen, others) • FTT • HLL • Scott Hawley talk… www.eu-network.org Sources of Gravitational Radiation

Refinement of evolution methods and formulation of equations (AEI, UIB, ongoing). • Excellent progress has been made, as the BSSN system has been further refined by the AEI group, and is being made available to all other nodes. • Development of appropriate gauge conditions for stable numerical evolutions (AEI, OP, UIB, AUTH, FSU, ongoing). • This work continues, particularly at AEI, and new lapse and shift conditions have significantly improved BH evolutions. • Soon they will be applied to NS evolutions, too. These are the two most important general developments for the numerical relativity efforts of the Network… www.eu-network.org Sources of Gravitational Radiation
Refinement of general relativistic hydro-dynamical algorithms (UVEG, SISSA, ongoing). • Collaboration with the WashU • ,new hydro methods have been developed and tested, • long-term evolutions of NSs have been significantly improved. • A completely new 3D Hydro code is presently under development at AEI, in collaboration with UVEG, AUTH, and SISSA (long visits to AEI from YRs at SISSA • Many talks here about this… www.eu-network.org Sources of Gravitational Radiation
From A.4… • A mechanism for analyzing asymptotic wave-forms for any fully relativistic 3+1 code on a finite grid (AEI, … 24 months). “done” NP, Lazarus Zerilli GWs from ISCO Collision GWs from Oscillating NS www.eu-network.org Sources of Gravitational Radiation
