Prompt Black Hole Formation in Binary Neutron Star Mergers
Christian Ecker, Konrad Topolski, Matti Järvinen +1
We carry out an in-depth analysis of the prompt-collapse behaviour of binary neutron star (BNS) mergers. To this end, we perform more than general relativistic BNS merger simu…
Exploring the Phase Diagram of V-QCD with Neutron Star Merger Simulations
Tuna Demircik, Christian Ecker, Matti Järvinen +3
Determining the phase structure of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) and its Equation of State (EOS) at densities and temperatures realized inside neutron stars and their mergers is a l…
Quark formation and phenomenology in binary neutron-star mergers using V-QCD
Samuel Tootle, Christian Ecker, Konrad Topolski +3
Using full 3+1 dimensional general-relativistic hydrodynamic simulations of equal- and unequal-mass neutron-star binaries with properties that are consistent with those inferred fr…
