Probing neutron-star matter in the lab: similarities and differences between binary mergers and heavy-ion collisions
Elias R. Most, Anton Motornenko, Jan Steinheimer +4
Binary neutron-star mergers and heavy-ion collisions are related through the properties of the hot and dense nuclear matter formed during these extreme events. In particular, low-e…
Postmerger Gravitational-Wave Signatures of Phase Transitions in Binary Mergers
Lukas R. Weih, Matthias Hanauske, Luciano Rezzolla
With the first detection of gravitational waves from a binary system of neutron stars, GW170817, a new window was opened to study the properties of matter at and above nuclear-satu…
On the Deconfinement Phase Transition in Neutron-Star Mergers
Elias R. Most, L. Jens Papenfort, Veronica Dexheimer +3
We study in detail the nuclear aspects of a neutron-star merger in which deconfinement to quark matter takes place. For this purpose, we make use of the Chiral Mean Field (CMF) mod…
Neutron-Star-Merger Equation of State
Veronica Dexheimer, Constantinos Constantinou, Elias R. Most +5
In this work, we discuss the dense matter equation of state (EOS) for the extreme range of conditions encountered in neutron stars and their mergers. The calculation of the propert…
Constraining twin stars with GW170817
Gloria Montana, Laura Tolos, Matthias Hanauske +1
If a phase transition is allowed to take place in the core of a compact star, a new stable branch of equilibrium configurations can appear, providing solutions with the same mass a…
Signatures of quark-hadron phase transitions in general-relativistic neutron-star mergers
Elias R. Most, L. Jens Papenfort, Veronica Dexheimer +4
Merging binaries of neutron stars are not only strong sources of gravitational waves, but also have the potential of revealing states of matter at densities and temperatures not ac…
