A Successful 3D Core-Collapse Supernova Explosion Model
David Vartanyan, Adam Burrows, David Radice +2
In this paper, we present the results of our three-dimensional, multi-group, multi-neutrino-species radiation/hydrodynamic simulation using the state-of-the-art code F{\sc{ornax}}…
Constraints on the maximum densities of neutron stars from postmerger gravitational waves with third-generation observations
Matteo Breschi, Sebastiano Bernuzzi, Daniel Godzieba +2
Using data from 289 numerical relativity simulations of merging binary neutron stars, we identify, for the first time, a robust quasi-universal relation connecting the postmerger p…
Remnant properties of binary neutron star mergers undergoing prompt collapse
Arnab Dhani, Alessandro Camilletti, David Radice +4
We study the properties of remnants formed in prompt-collapse binary neutron star mergers. We consider non-spinning binaries over a range of total masses and mass ratios across a s…
FRIB and the GW170817 Kilonova
A. Aprahamian, R. Surman, A. Frebel +45
In July 2018 an FRIB Theory Alliance program was held on the implications of GW170817 and its associated kilonova for r-process nucleosynthesis. Topics of discussion included the a…
Exact Mass Conservation in Binary Neutron Star Merger Simulations
Boris Daszuta, Sebastiano Bernuzzi, Joan Fontbuté +4
A long-standing problem in the simulation of neutron star spacetimes is the treatment of vacuum regions outside the stars. The use of an artificial low-density atmosphere is a comm…
Numerical Relativity Simulations of the Neutron Star Merger GW170817: Long-Term Remnant Evolutions, Winds, Remnant Disks, and Nucleosynthesis
Vsevolod Nedora, Sebastiano Bernuzzi, David Radice +7
We present a systematic numerical-relativity study of the dynamical ejecta, winds and nucleosynthesis in neutron star merger remnants. Binaries with the chirp mass compatible with…
