We introduce an artificial cosmological constant, which allows us some control over the causal structure near null infinity. We exploit this freedom to ensure that all light cones are tilted outward in a region near null infinity, which allows us to impose excision-style boundary conditions in our finite-difference code. In this preliminary study we consider electromagnetic waves propagating in a static, conformally compactified spacetime. | | External Publication Status: | published | | Document Type: | Article |
