Angular Momentum Role in the Hypercritical Accretion of Binary-Driven Hypernovae

Abstract

The induced gravitational collapse (IGC) paradigm explains a class of energetic, $E_{\mathrm{iso}}\gtrsim 10^{52}$~erg, long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) associated with Ic supernovae, recently named binary-driven hypernovae (BdHNe). The progenitor is a tight binary system formed of a carbon-oxygen (CO) core and a neutron star companion. The supernova ejecta of the exploding CO core triggers a hypercritical accretion process onto the neutron star, which reaches in a few seconds the critical mass, and gravitationally collapses to a black hole emitting a GRB. In our previous simulations of this process we adopted a spherically symmetric approximation to compute the features of the hypercritical accretion process. We here present the first estimates of the angular momentum transported by the supernova ejecta, $L_{\mathrm{acc}}$, and perform numerical simulations of the angular momentum transfer to the neutron star during the hyperaccretion process in full general relativity. We show that the neutron star: i) reaches in a few seconds either mass-shedding limit or the secular axisymmetric instability depending on its initial mass; ii) reaches a maximum dimensionless angular momentum value, $[cJ/(G{M}^2){]}_{\max }\approx 0.7$; iii) can support less angular momentum than the one transported by supernova ejecta, $L_{\mathrm{acc}}>J_{\mathrm{NS},\max }$, hence there is an angular momentum excess which necessarily leads to jetted emission.
