PROFILE
Oliver Long
Oliver Long contributed to the sxs-collaboration/www_black-holes_org repository by developing and publishing research communication assets focused on black hole physics and numerical relativity. He authored detailed blog posts on binary black hole scattering, integrating simulation results, figures, and cross-code benchmarking using Markdown for content management and technical writing. Oliver enhanced repository documentation by updating contributor acknowledgments and improving team profiles with structured metadata and images, supporting onboarding and external engagement. His work demonstrated depth in scientific communication, content writing, and collaboration, delivering reproducible, publication-ready narratives that strengthened the project’s governance, research visibility, and documentation accuracy over a four-month period.

Nov 1, 2025Month: 2025-11 — Key feature delivered: publication of the 'Black hole scattering study' blog post in the sxs-collaboration/www_black-holes_org repository. The post details findings from a numerical relativity study on black hole scattering, including extraction of self-force effects and a comparison with post-Minkowskian formalism to illuminate binary-black-hole dynamics. The work is anchored by the commit that adds the spec-sf-pm-scattering post (b40cf166dfef99ce4d3caee8b49f6d9c03087f31). Major bugs fixed: None reported this month. Overall impact: strengthens research communication, enhances reproducibility, and increases visibility of the collaboration's advances in black-hole dynamics. Demonstrates end-to-end research publishing workflow within the repository and supports external engagement with clear methodological narrative. Technologies/skills demonstrated: numerical relativity, self-force extraction, post-M Minkowskian (PM) formalism comparison, scientific publishing, repository content curation, and documentation.

Jul 1, 2025July 2025 monthly summary: Delivered a key public-facing research communication asset for sxs-collaboration/www_black-holes_org. Key features delivered include a binary black hole scattering simulations blog post and content polish using SpEC, with detailed simulation parameter descriptions, cross-code benchmarking context with the Einstein Toolkit, and analysis for spinning and unequal-mass black holes. The post includes figures illustrating trajectories and scattering angles and references an arXiv preprint. A minor Markdown typo was corrected in related documentation.
