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…
Holographic neutrino transport in dense strongly-coupled matter
M. Järvinen, E. Kiritsis, F. Nitti +1
A (toy) model for cold and luke-warm strongly-coupled nuclear matter at finite baryon density is used to study neutrino transport. The complete charged current two-point correlator…
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…
Gravitational Waves from Holographic Neutron Star Mergers
Christian Ecker, Matti Järvinen, Govert Nijs +1
We simulate the merger of binary neutron stars and analyze the spectral properties of their gravitational waveforms. For the stars we construct hybrid equations of state (EoSs) wit…
