Radioactively Powered Emission from Black Hole-Neutron Star Mergers
Masaomi Tanaka, Kenta Hotokezaka, Koutarou Kyutoku +4
Detection of electromagnetic counterparts of gravitational wave (GW) sources is important to unveil the nature of compact binary coalescences. We perform three-dimensional, time-de…
Progenitor models of the electromagnetic transient associated with the short GRB 130603B
Kenta Hotokezaka, Koutarou Kyutoku, Masaomi Tanaka +4
An electromagnetic transient powered by the radioactive decay of r-process elements, a so-called kilonova/macronova, is one of the possible observable consequences of compact binar…
Remnant massive neutron stars of binary neutron star mergers: Evolution process and gravitational waveform
Kenta Hotokezaka, Kenta Kiuchi, Koutarou Kyutoku +4
Massive (hypermassive and supramassive) neutron stars are likely to be often formed after the merger of binary neutron stars. We explore the evolution process of the remnant massiv…
The Influence of Thermal Pressure on Equilibrium Models of Hypermassive Neutron Star Merger Remnants
J. D. Kaplan, C. D. Ott, E. P. O'Connor +3
The merger of two neutron stars leaves behind a rapidly spinning hypermassive object whose survival is believed to depend on the maximum mass supported by the nuclear equation of s…
The mass ejection from the merger of binary neutron stars
Kenta Hotokezaka, Kenta Kiuchi, Koutarou Kyutoku +4
Numerical-relativity simulations for the merger of binary neutron stars are performed for a variety of equations of state (EOSs) and for a plausible range of the neutron-star mass,…
