General-purpose equations of state for hadron-quark matter: first application to accretion-induced phase transitions in neutron stars

János Takátsy, Henrique Gieg, Tim Dietrich

Strong first-order phase transitions in the cores of neutron stars (NSs) can have profound implications for astrophysical observables, however, their existence remains an open ques…

Numerical simulations of low-mass black hole-neutron star mergers with moderate eccentricities

Ivan Markin, Gonzalo Morrás, Tim Dietrich

A confident detection of orbital eccentricity in gravitational-wave signals from black hole-neutron star systems would be a strong indicator of their dynamical formation origin. Wh…

Investigating the influence of the full-kinematics treatment for charged-current processes in binary neutron star mergers

Ramon Jaeger, Henrique Gieg, Tim Dietrich

Weak interactions are fundamental in the merger of binary neutron stars (BNS). They provide cooling, change the composition of matter outflows, and can lead to significant secular…

Fast gravitational waveform models for quasi-circular coalescences of neutron star--black hole binaries

Felip A. Ramis Vidal, Adrian Abac, Marta Colleoni +5

We present IMRPhenomXHM_NSBH and SEOBNRv5HM_ROM_NRTidalv3_NSBH, the first two frequency-domain models for gravitational-wave signals from quasi-circular, aligned-spin neutron star-…

Consistent Treatment of Muons in Binary Neutron Star Mergers

Henrique Gieg, Ramon Jaeger, Maximiliano Ujevic +1

We present a set of numerical-relativity binary neutron star merger simulations incorporating muons and muonic reactions for two baseline baryonic equations-of-state. In order to i…

Investigating the impact of quasi-universal relations on neutron star constraints in third-generation detectors

Natalie Williams, Anna Puecher, Guilherme Grams +2

Gravitational-wave observations of binary neutron star systems can shed light on the currently unknown dense matter equation of state. The equation of state determines a large numb…

Numerical simulations of black hole-neutron star mergers with equal and near-equal mass ratios

Ivan Markin, Mattia Bulla, Tim Dietrich

The detection of GW230529_181500 suggested the existence of more symmetric black hole-neutron star mergers where the black hole mass can be as low as 2.6 times that of the neutron…
