Angular momentum transport in the convection zone of a 3D MHD simulation of a rapidly rotating core-collapse progenitor

Ryota Shimada, Lucy O. McNeill, Vishnu Varma +3

Rotation and magnetic fields in the cores of evolved massive stars in their final phase are thought to play an important role in the subsequent supernova explosion and the formatio…

Mass transfer stability for AM CVn binaries with white dwarf donors

Lucy O. McNeill, Ryosuke Hirai

Double white dwarf binaries (DWDBs) with Helium components are progenitors to AM CVn binary systems. Their Galactic production rate may be given by the number of stably mass transf…

Probing Formation of Double Neutron Star Binaries around 1mHz with LISA

Lucy O. McNeill, Naoki Seto

We propose a novel method to examine whether Galactic double neutron star binaries are formed in the LISA band. In our method, we assign an effective time fraction to each doub…

Differential Rotation in a 3D Simulation of Oxygen Shell Burning

Lucy O. McNeill, Bernhard Müller

We study differential rotation in late-stage shell convection in a 3D hydrodynamic simulation of a rapidly rotating helium star with a particular focus on the convectiv…

Stochastic Core Spin-Up in Massive Stars -- Implications of 3D Simulations of Oxygen Shell Burning

L. O. McNeill, B. Müller

It has been suggested based on analytic theory that even in non-rotating supernova progenitors stochastic spin-up by internal gravity waves (IGWs) during the late burning stages ca…

Gravitational waves from dynamical tides in white dwarf binaries

L. O. McNeill, Rosemary A. Mardling, B. Müller

We study the effect of tidal forcing on gravitational wave signals from tidally relaxed white dwarf pairs in the LISA, DECIGO and BBO frequency band (). We show…

Gravitational Waves from Orphan Memory

Lucy O. McNeill, Eric Thrane, Paul D. Lasky

Gravitational-wave memory manifests as a permanent distortion of an idealized gravitational-wave detector and arises generically from energetic astrophysical events. For example, b…
