▼ In this dissertation, a new method of applying the ADM formalism of general relativity to model the gravitational radiation emitted from the realistic inspiral of a neutron star binary is described. A description of the conformally flat condition (CFC) is summarized, and the ADM equations are solved by use of the CFC approach for a neutron star binary. The advantages and limitations of this approach are discussed, and the need for a more accurate improvement to this approach is described. To address this need, a linearized perturbation of the CFC spatial three metric is then introduced. The general relativistic hydrodynamic equations are then allowed to evolve against this basis under the assumption that the first-order corrections to the hydrodynamic variables are negligible compared to their CFC values. As a first approximation, the linear corrections to the conformal factor, lapse function, and shift vector are also assumed to be small compared to the extrinsic curvature and the three metric. A boundary matching method is then introduced as a way of computing the gravitational radiation of this relativistic system without use of the multipole expansion as employed by earlier applications of the CFC approach. It is assumed that at a location far from the source, the three metric is accurately described by a linear correction to Minkowski spacetime. The two polarizations of gravitational radiation can then be computed at that point in terms of the linearized correction to the metric. The evolution equations obtained from the linearized perturbative correction to the CFC approach and the method for recovery of the gravity wave signal are then tested by use of a three-dimensional numerical simulation. This code is used to compute the gravity wave signal emitted a pair of equal mass neutron stars in quasi-stable circular orbits at a point early in their inspiral phase. From this simple numerical analysis, the correct general trend of gravitational radiation is recovered. Comparisons with (5/2) post-Newtonian solutions show a similar gravitational waveform, although inaccuracies are still found to exist from this computation. Finally, several areas for improvement and potential future applications of this technique are discussed.

▼ This dissertation investigates some propositions that fall outside the main- stream of the standard big bang cosmology. We begin with partial evidence from the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) that the universe may be finite, com- pactified and flat, or at least nearly flat. The simplest interpretation of a flat universe is that it is infinite and non-compact. However, there are a great variety of ways that infinite universes can be “wrapped up’ and given a compact finite vol- ume, without the need to modify general relativity. Detailed analysis of the CMB could potentially tell us the nature of the compactification, except that there is considerable uncertainty over sources of error. Another approach is to correlate the positions of distant luminous objects. While this cannot probe so broad a set of possibilities, it may be more sensitive for those that it can. In this thesis a new technique is developed that is much more sensitive to the very-nearly flat cases than previous tests of this type. Application to existing catalogs rules out a compact dimension smaller than 90% of the present horizon radius. The test requires that the position of objects is corrected for relativistic aberration. This gives rise to a second piece of work that systemizes corrections for objects and also the microwave background. The final part looks at an unusual explanation for galaxy rotation curves. These are conventionally thought to be the result of a dark matter halo that Dylan R Menzies-Gow enshrowds each galaxy. Such dark matter also helps to account for the large quantity dark matter deduced from observations of the CMB. However, it has been suggested that the rotation curves could be a classical general relativistic effect, despite the non-relativistic velocities and densities involved. Such a claim is very unusual and has created considerable contraversy. The chapter presents a conclusive analysis to demonstrate that the suggested model is unphysical by implying an infinite mass for each galaxy. Advisors/Committee Members: James J. Kolata, Committee Member, Dinshaw Balsara, Committee Member, Chris Kolda, Committee Member, Don Howard, Committee Chair, Grant J. Mathews, Committee Member.
