Figure 13: BH trajectories in grazing collisions for γ = 1.520 and three values of the impact parameter corresponding to the regime of prompt merger (solid, black curve), of delayed merger (dashed, red curve), and scattering (dotted, blue curve). Note that for each case, the trajectory of one BH is shown only; the other BH’s location is given by symmetry across the origin.
