Scientific paper

We present preliminary results in our long-term project of studying the evolution of matter in a dynamical spacetime. To achieve this, we have developed a new code to evolve axisymmetric initial data sets corresponding to a black hole surrounded by matter fields. The code is based on the coupling of two previously existing codes. The matter fields are evolved with a 2D shock-capturing method which uses the characteristic information of the GR hydro equations to build up a linearized Riemann solver. The spacetime is evolved with a 2D ADM code designed to evolve a wormhole in full general relativity. An example of the kind of problems we are currently investigating is the on axis collision of a star with a black hole.
