Initially rapidly rotating NSs start to rotate differentially, leading to a
short-lived disc of material outside the black hole. The black hole grows
as matter is accreted, as shown by the horizons.

• We use first order gauge invariant Zerilli extraction.
• Near-zone and gauge effects still visible at small radii.
• Quadrupole formula gives poor results. Cauchy characteristic extraction
under development.

The computed wavesignals are

An alternative method that may
avoid these problems and has other
benefits is the use of a multipatch
grid. This covers the domain with
S2 × R topology grids, excising the
centre. The smooth inner boundary
makes excision simpler.
