Colliding scalar pulses in the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity

We numerically investigated how the nonlinear dynamics depends on the dimensionality and on the higher-order curvature corrections in the form of Gauss-Bonnet (GB) terms, with a model of colliding scalar pulses in plane-symmetric space-time. We observed that a collision of large scalar pulses will p...
