Signatures of deconfined quark phases in binary neutron star mergers

Aviral Prakash, David Radice, Domenico Logoteta +6

(abridged) We investigate the quark deconfinement phase transition in the context of binary neutron star (BNS) mergers. We employ a new finite-temperature composition-dependent equ…

Dynamical ejecta synchrotron emission as possible contributor to the changing behaviour of GRB170817A

Vsevolod Nedora, David Radice, Sebastiano Bernuzzi +5

Over the past three years, the fading non-thermal emission from the GW170817 remained generally consistent with the afterglow powered by synchrotron radiation produced by the inter…

Mapping dynamical ejecta and disk masses from numerical relativity simulations of neutron star mergers

Vsevolod Nedora, Federico Schianchi, Sebastiano Bernuzzi +6

We present fitting formulae for the dynamical ejecta properties and remnant disk masses from the largest to date sample of numerical relativity simulations. The considered data inc…

Numerical Relativity Simulations of the Neutron Star Merger GW170817: Long-Term Remnant Evolutions, Winds, Remnant Disks, and Nucleosynthesis

Vsevolod Nedora, Sebastiano Bernuzzi, David Radice +7

We present a systematic numerical-relativity study of the dynamical ejecta, winds and nucleosynthesis in neutron star merger remnants. Binaries with the chirp mass compatible with…

Accretion-induced prompt black hole formation in asymmetric neutron star mergers, dynamical ejecta and kilonova signals

Sebastiano Bernuzzi, Matteo Breschi, Boris Daszuta +9

We present new numerical relativity results of neutron star mergers with chirp mass and mass ratios and using finite-temperature equations of state…

Thermodynamics conditions of matter in the neutrino decoupling region during neutron star mergers

Andrea Endrizzi, Albino Perego, Francesco M. Fabbri +6

Neutrino-matter interactions play a key role in binary neutron star mergers. Thermodynamics conditions at the surfaces where neutrinos decouple from matter influence neutrino spect…

Spiral-wave wind for the blue kilonova

Vsevolod Nedora, Sebastiano Bernuzzi, David Radice +3

The AT2017gfo kilonova counterpart of the binary neutron star merger event GW170817 was characterized by an early-time bright peak in optical and UV bands. Such blue kilonova is co…

Effects of Chiral Effective Field Theory Equation of State on Binary Neutron Star Mergers

Andrea Endrizzi, Domenico Logoteta, Bruno Giacomazzo +3

We present fully general relativistic simulations of binary neutron star mergers, employing a new zero- temperature chiral effective field theory equation of state, the BL EOS. We…

General relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations of binary neutron star mergers forming a long-lived neutron star

Riccardo Ciolfi, Wolfgang Kastaun, Bruno Giacomazzo +3

Merging binary neutron stars (BNSs) represent the ultimate targets for multimessenger astronomy, being among the most promising sources of gravitational waves (GWs), and, at the sa…

Structure of Stable Binary Neutron Star Merger Remnants: Role of Initial Spin

Wolfgang Kastaun, Riccardo Ciolfi, Andrea Endrizzi +1

We present general relativistic numerical simulations of binary neutron star (BNS) mergers with different initial spin configurations. We focus on models with stars of mass 1.4 M_s…

Binary Neutron Star Mergers and Short Gamma-Ray Bursts: Effects of Magnetic Field Orientation, Equation of State, and Mass Ratio

Takumu Kawamura, Bruno Giacomazzo, Wolfgang Kastaun +4

We present fully GRMHD simulations of the merger of binary neutron star (BNS) systems. We consider BNSs producing a hypermassive neutron star (HMNS) that collapses to a spinning bl…

General Relativistic Magnetohydrodynamic Simulations of Binary Neutron Star Mergers with the APR4 Equation of State

Andrea Endrizzi, Riccardo Ciolfi, Bruno Giacomazzo +2

We present new results of fully general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations of binary neutron star (BNS) mergers performed with the Whisky code. All the models use a piece…
