simulating the
collisions of
black holes with ease, as were several other research groups.
While this experimental work was taking place, theorists outside Caltech, MIT, and the LIGO project were developing computer codes to
simulate the massive
collisions of
black holes and other sources of gravitational waves that LIGO might detect.
