A constrained scheme for Einstein equations based on Dirac gauge and spherical coordinates

S. Bonazzola, E. Gourgoulhon, P. Grandclement +1

We propose a new formulation for 3+1 numerical relativity, based on a constrained scheme and a generalization of Dirac gauge to spherical coordinates. This is made possible thanks…

Evolutionary sequences of irrotational binary neutron stars

S. Bonazzola, E. Gourgoulhon, J. -A. Marck

We present results of numerical computations of quasiequilibrium sequences of binary neutron stars with zero vorticity, in the general relativistic framework. The Einstein equation…

Spectral methods in general relativistic astrophysics

S. Bonazzola, E. Gourgoulhon, J. -A. Marck

We present spectral methods developed in our group to solve three-dimensional partial differential equations. The emphasis is put on equations arising from astrophysical problems i…

Strategy to detect the gravitational radiation counterpart of gamma-ray bursts

S. Bonazzola, E. Gourgoulhon

Both observational and theoretical rates of binary neutron star coalescence give low prospects for detection of a single event by the initial LIGO/VIRGO interferometers. However, b…

Triaxial neutron stars -- a possible source of gravitational radiation

S. Bonazzola, J. Frieben, E. Gourgoulhon

Triaxial neutron stars may be important sources of gravitational radiation for the forthcoming generation of interferometric gravitational wave detectors such as LIGO, VIRGO, and G…

Gravitational waves from accreting neutron stars

S. Bonazzola, E. Gourgoulhon

We show that accreting neutron stars in binary systems or in Landau-Thorne-Zytkow objects are good candidates for continuous gravitational wave emission. Their gravitational radiat…
