Résumé
Abstract

Nous passons en revue les progrès récents concernant la simulation des trous noirs en relativité numérique. Après un bref résumé des méthodes employées, nous donnons les résultats clés dans deux domaines majeurs de la physique des trous noirs : (i) les trous noirs comme sources dʼondes gravitationnelles et (ii) les systèmes astrophysiques contenant des trous noirs. Nous concluons sur la liste des travaux les plus urgents à conduire dans ces domaines.

We review recent progress in numerical relativity simulations of black-hole (BH) spacetimes. Following a brief summary of the methods employed in the modeling, we summarize the key results in two major areas of BH physics: (i) BHs as sources of gravitational waves (GWs) and (ii) astrophysical systems involving BHs. We conclude with a list of the most urgent tasks for numerical relativity in these areas.
