Modelling the delayed shock-breakout emission following jet-launching binary neutron star mergers via relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations simulations

Matteo Pais, Riccardo Ciolfi, Andrea Pavan

In binary neutron star (BNS) mergers launching a relativistic jet, an electromagnetic (EM) signal is produced when the jet-driven shock breaks out of the merger ejecta. The observe…

Simulating short GRB jets in late binary neutron star merger environments

Matteo Pais, Tsvi Piran, Kenta Kiuchi +1

The electromagnetic emission and the afterglow observations of the binary neutron star merger event GW 170817A confirmed the association of the merger with a short gamma-ray burst…

The collimation of relativistic jets in post-neutron star binary merger simulations

Matteo Pais, Tsvi Piran, Yuri Lyubarsky +2

The gravitational waves from the binary neutron star merger GW170817 were accompanied by a multi-wavelength electromagnetic counterpart, which confirms the association of the merge…

The velocity distribution of outflows driven by choked jets in stellar envelopes

Matteo Pais, Tsvi Piran, Ehud Nakar

Many stripped envelope supernovae (SNe) present a signature of high-velocity material responsible for broad absorption lines in the observed spectrum. These include SNe that are as…

Simulating TeV gamma-ray morphologies of shell-type supernova remnants

Matteo Pais, Christoph Pfrommer

Supernova remnant (SNR) shocks provide favourable sites of cosmic ray (CR) proton acceleration if the local magnetic field direction is quasi-parallel to the shock normal. Using th…

Evolution and observational signatures of the cosmic ray electron spectrum in SN 1006

Georg Winner, Christoph Pfrommer, Philipp Girichidis +2

Supernova remnants (SNRs) are believed to be the source of Galactic cosmic rays (CRs). SNR shocks accelerate CR protons and electrons which reveal key insights into the non-thermal…

Constraining the coherence scale of the interstellar magnetic field using TeV gamma-ray observations of supernova remnants

Matteo Pais, Christoph Pfrommer, Kristian Ehlert +2

Galactic cosmic rays (CRs) are believed to be accelerated at supernova remnant (SNR) shocks. In the hadronic scenario the TeV gamma-ray emission from SNRs originates from decaying…

The effect of cosmic-ray acceleration on supernova blast wave dynamics

M. Pais, C. Pfrommer, K. Ehlert +1

Non-relativistic shocks accelerate ions to highly relativistic energies provided that the orientation of the magnetic field is closely aligned with the shock normal (quasi-parallel…
