Abstract

We summarize the state of the art of the ``close approximation'' to black hole collisions. We discuss results to first and second order in perturbation theory for head-on collisions of momentarily-stationary and non-stationary black holes and discuss the near-future prospect of non-axisymmetric collisions.
