General relativistic hydrodynamic simulations of binary strange star mergers

Francesco Grippa, Aviral Prakash, Domenico Logoteta +2

We perform fully general-relativistic simulations of binary strange star mergers considering two different approaches for thermal effects. The first uses a cold equation of state (…

Thermal Effects in Binary Neutron Star Mergers

Jacob Fields, Aviral Prakash, Matteo Breschi +3

We study the impact of finite-temperature effects in numerical-relativity simulations of binary neutron star mergers with microphysical equations of state and neutrino transport in…

Revealing Phase Transition in Dense Matter with Gravitational Wave Spectroscopy of Binary Neutron Star Mergers

Pedro Luis Espino, Aviral Prakash, David Radice +1

We use numerical relativity simulations of binary neutron star mergers to show that high density deconfinement phase transitions (PTs) to quark matter can be probed using multimoda…

Probing the incompressibility of nuclear matter at ultra-high density through the prompt collapse of asymmetric neutron star binaries

A. Perego, D. Logoteta, D. Radice +5

Using 250 neutron star merger simulations with microphysics, we explore for the first time the role of nuclear incompressibility in the prompt collapse threshold for binaries with…

Numerical relativity simulations of prompt collapse mergers: threshold mass and phenomenological constraints on neutron star properties after GW170817

Rahul Kashyap, Abhishek Das, David Radice +10

We determine the threshold mass for prompt (no bounce) black hole formation in equal-mass neutron star (NS) mergers using a new set of 227 numerical relativity simulations. We cons…

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…
