The numerical modeling of binary neutron star mergers has become a subject of much interest in recent years. While a full and accurate model of this phenomenon would require the evolution of the equations of relativistic hydrodynamics along…

The late universe's matter distribution obeys the Copernican principle at only the coarsest of scales. The relative importance of such inhomogeneity is still not well understood. Because of the Einstein field equations' non-linear nature,…
