Imaging non-hydrodynamic modes with jet wakes
Aleksi Kurkela, Ian Moult, Alexander Soloviev +1
While studies of ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions have established that the quark--gluon plasma exhibits hydrodynamic behavior, direct signatures of non-hydrodynamic modes h…
Causality alone bounds the maximum radius difference between different-mass neutron stars
Aleksi Kurkela, Tuhin Malik
We investigate how the assumption of a common causal equation of state (EoS) correlates the radii of neutron stars at different masses and thereby reduces the uncertainties inferre…
As above, so below: assessing extremeness of the neutron-star equation of state based on the unstable branch
Tyler Gorda, Oleg Komoltsev, Aleksi Kurkela +1
Microscopic models of neutron-star matter have been widely used in astrophysical applications. The focus of attention has been on densities up to the maximal densities reached in s…
Constrained Gaussian-process bridge prior for neutron-star equation-of-state inference
Tyler Gorda, Oleg Komoltsev, Aleksi Kurkela +1
We set forth a new method for generating model-agnostic, nonparametric priors for neutron star equation-of-state inference that are stable, causal and thermodynamically consistent…
Machine learning approach to QCD kinetic theory
Sergio Barrera Cabodevila, Aleksi Kurkela, Florian Lindenbauer
The effective kinetic theory (EKT) of QCD provides a possible picture of various non-equilibrium processes in heavy- and light-ion collisions. While there have been substantial adv…
Listening to the long ringdown: A novel way to pinpoint the EOS in neutron-star cores
Christian Ecker, Tyler Gorda, Aleksi Kurkela +1
Gravitational waves (GWs) from binary neutron star (BNS) merger remnants complement constraints from the inspiral phase, mass-radius measurements, and microscopic theory by providi…
