SUMMARY:Black-hole binary inspiral and merger in scalar tensor theory of g
 ravity - Ulrich Sperhake (DAMTP)

DESCRIPTION:This talk presents numerical simulations of an inspiraling bla
 ck-hole binary\nin scalar tensor theory. The no-hair theorem is overcome i
 n this setup\nthrough a scalar field gradient and choosing the orbital pla
 ne of the binary\nto be oriented along the gradient direction. The interac
 tion of the black\nholes with the scalar field give rise to a radiative sc
 alar dipole which\noscillates at twice the orbital frequency.
