Abstract: The excitation of a black hole by infalling matter or radiation has been studied for a long time, mostly in linear perturbation theory. In this paper we study numerically the response of a Schwarzschild black hole to an incoming gravitational wave pulse. We present a numerically well-posed initial boundary value problem for the generalized conformal field equations in which a wave profile for the ingoing wave is specified at an outer time-like boundary which then hits an initially static and spherically symmetric black hole. The non-linear interaction of the black hole with the gravitational wave leads to scattered radiation moving back out. The clean separation between initial state and incoming radiation makes this setup ideal to study scattering problems. The use of the conformal field equations allows us to trace the response of the black hole to null infinity where we can read off the scattered gravitational waves and compute the Bondi-Sachs mass and the gravitational flux through . In this way we check the Bondi-Sachs mass loss formula directly on null infinity. We also comment on comparisons with quasinormal modes.
