Three-Dimensional General-Relativistic Simulations of Neutrino-Driven Winds from Rotating Proto-Neutron Stars
Dhruv K. Desai, Daniel M. Siegel, Brian D. Metzger
We explore the effects of rapid rotation on the properties of neutrino-heated winds from proto-neutron stars (PNS) formed in core-collapse supernovae or neutron-star mergers by mea…
Imprints of r-process heating on fall-back accretion: distinguishing black hole-neutron star from double neutron star mergers
Dhruv Desai, Brian D. Metzger, Francois Foucart
Mergers of compact binaries containing two neutron stars (NS-NS), or a neutron star and a stellar-mass black hole (NS-BH), are likely progenitors of short-duration gamma ray bursts…
Recovery schemes for primitive variables in general-relativistic magnetohydrodynamics
Daniel M. Siegel, Philipp Mösta, Dhruv Desai +1
General-relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) simulations are an important tool to study a variety of astrophysical systems such as neutron star mergers, core-collapse supernova…
Dynamics, nucleosynthesis, and kilonova signature of black hole - neutron star merger ejecta
Rodrigo Fernández, Francois Foucart, Daniel Kasen +3
We investigate the ejecta from black hole - neutron star mergers by modeling the formation and interaction of mass ejected in a tidal tail and a disk wind. The outflows are neutron…
Dynamical ejecta from precessing neutron star-black hole mergers with a hot, nuclear-theory based equation of state
Francois Foucart, Dhruv Desai, Wyatt Brege +6
Neutron star-black hole binaries are among the strongest sources of gravitational waves detectable by current observatories. They can also power bright electromagnetic signals (gam…
