Numerical Relativity Simulations of Magnetized Black Hole-Neutron Star Mergers

Zachariah B. Etienne, Yuk Tung Liu, Vasileios Paschalidis +1

We present new numerical techniques we developed for launching the first parameter study of {\it magnetized} black hole--neutron star (BHNS) mergers, varying the magnetic fields se…

The NINJA-2 catalog of hybrid post-Newtonian/numerical-relativity waveforms for non-precessing black-hole binaries

P. Ajith, Michael Boyle, Duncan A. Brown +45

The Numerical INJection Analysis (NINJA) project is a collaborative effort between members of the numerical relativity and gravitational wave data analysis communities. The purpose…

General relativistic simulations of black hole-neutron star mergers: Effects of magnetic fields

Zachariah B. Etienne, Yuk Tung Liu, Vasileios Paschalidis +1

As a neutron star (NS) is tidally disrupted by a black hole (BH) companion at the end of a BH-NS binary inspiral, its magnetic fields will be stretched and amplified. If sufficient…

Relativistic MHD in dynamical spacetimes: Improved EM gauge condition for AMR grids

Zachariah B. Etienne, Vasileios Paschalidis, Yuk Tung Liu +1

We recently developed a new general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic code with adaptive mesh refinement that evolves the electromagnetic (EM) vector potential (A) instead of the ma…

The merger of binary white dwarf-neutron stars: Simulations in full general relativity

Vasileios Paschalidis, Yuk Tung Liu, Zachariah Etienne +1

We present fully general relativistic (GR) simulations of binary white dwarf-neutron star (WDNS) inspiral and merger. The initial binary is in a circular orbit at the Roche critica…

Binary black hole mergers in gaseous disks: Simulations in general relativity

Brian D. Farris, Yuk Tung Liu, Stuart L. Shapiro

Simultaneous gravitational and electromagnetic wave observations of merging black hole binaries (BHBHs) can provide unique opportunities to study gravitation physics, accretion and…
