The recent advent of the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) has made direct imaging of supermassive black holes a reality. Simulated images of black holes produced via general relativistic ray tracing and radiative transfer provide a key…

We present an implementation of a ray tracing code in the Schwarzschild metric. We aim at building a numerical code with a correct implementation of both special (aberration, amplification, Doppler) and general (deflection of light,…

Ray tracing is a technique for generating an image by tracing the path of light through pixels in an image plane and simulating the effects of high-quality global illumination at a heavy computational cost. Because of the high computation…

In the field of gravitational wave science, next-generation detectors will be substantially more accurate than the current suite of detectors. Numerical relativity simulations of binary black hole (BBH) gravitational waveforms must become…

Ray tracing algorithm simulates the physical movements of a huge amount of rays to render a high quality image, in which the tracing procedure for each ray can be implemented in parallel. By leveraging the inherent parallelism of quantum…

We study the gravitational microlensing of various static and spherically symmetric non-singular black holes (and horizonless, non-singular compact objects of similar size). For pointlike sources we extend the parametrized post-Newtonian…

We employ the method of comparison equations to study the propagation of a massless minimally coupled scalar field on the Schwarzschild background. In particular, we show that this method allows us to obtain explicit approximate expressions…

We show that a flowing dielectric medium with a linear response to an external electric field can be used to generate an analog geometry that has many of the formal properties of a Schwarzschild black hole for light rays, in spite of…

Black holes and other compact objects are powerful tools to observationally test Einsteins theory of General Relativity. We develop raytracing code to create visual images of compact objects that are solutions of Einsteins field equations.…

We develop a systematic ray-tracing method which can be used to explore a wide class of higher-dimensional multi-center black objects through the shape of their shadows. As a proof of principle, we test our method by imaging black holes and…

We study null rays propagation in a spacetime of static Schwarzschild--Tangherlini black holes in arbitrary number of dimensions. We focus on the bending angle and the retarded time delay for rays emitted in the vicinity of a black hole and…

We present recent developments on numerical algorithms for computing photon and particle trajectories in the surrounding of compact objects. Strong gravity around neutron stars or black holes causes relativistic effects on the motion of…

We study scattering of waves by black holes. Solving a massless scalar field with a point source in the Schwarzschild spacetime, waves scattered by the black hole is obtained numerically. We then reconstruct images of the black hole from…

We describe the Blacklight code, intended for post-processing general-relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulation data. Beyond polarized ray tracing of synchrotron radiation, it can produce a number of outputs that aid in analyzing data…

We describe a method for rendering multiple extremally charged black holes using an analogous system in classical optics, simplifying the prerequisite mathematics for generating accurate images. A primary goal of this work is to showcase a…

We propose a real-time method to render high-quality images of a non-rotating black hole with an accretion disc and background stars. Our method is based on beam tracing, but uses precomputed tables to find the intersections of each curved…

We develop a fully numerical framework to compute and visualize the \emph{hypershadow}\cite{Novo:2024wyn}, the three-dimensional generalization of the black hole shadow in five-dimensional spacetimes. Our method is based on backward ray…

Different astrophysical methods can be combined to detect possible deviations from General Relativity. In this work, we consider a class of $f(R)$ gravity models selected by the existence of Noether symmetries. In this framework, it is…

Since the development of Relativity theory, a variety of solutions have been found around Einstein field equations, depending on the time-space. For instance, we can find the axially symmetric space which describes a rotanting black hole.…

I describe approaches to the study of black hole spacetimes via numerical relativity. After a brief review of the basic formalisms and techniques used in numerical black hole simulations, I discuss a series of calculations from axisymmetry…
