Abstract:
A qualitative description is given of the gravitational field of an
isolated gravitating system emitting high frequency gravitational
radiation which is ended by a burst of radiation accompanied by matter
travelling with the speed of light, which in turn is followed by an
exponential ringing down to the field of a spherical black hole.
The process we describe could conceivably be applied to the last
stages of a binary neutron star collision. In this case the high frequency
phase coincides with the rapid inspiral motion of the stars. This is
ended by the collision, giving rise to a burst of outgoing radiation
accompanied by light-like matter such as neutrinos, and then the
ringing down follows when the remnant of the collision rapidly
radiates away its wave-front anisotropy, and a spherical black hole is formed.
