Summary[edit]
This image is a snapshot from a simulation of a star collapsing to form a black hole and emitting gravitational waves in the process. The white sphere in the center is the black hole's apparent horizon; the colorful wisps around it are the gravitational waves (l=2, m=2 multipole waves); the inset on the bottom right shows how the waveform would be perceived by a distant observer.
