Probing millisecond magnetar formation in binary neutron star mergers through X-ray follow-up of gravitational wave alerts
Clara Plasse, Alexis Reboul-Salze, Jérome Guilet +5
The nature of the remnant of a binary neutron star (BNS) merger is uncertain. Though certainly a black hole (BH) in the cases of the most massive BNSs, X-ray lightcurves from gamma…

From proto-neutron star dynamo to low-field magnetars
Andrei Igoshev, Paul Barrère, Raphaël Raynaud +3
Low-field magnetars have dipolar magnetic fields that are 10-100 times weaker than the threshold, G, used to define classical magnetars, yet they produce simila…

Tayler-Spruit dynamo in binary neutron star merger remnants
Alexis Reboul-Salze, Paul Barrère, Kenta Kiuchi +4
In binary neutron star mergers, the remnant can be stabilized by differential rotation before it collapses into a black hole. Therefore, the angular momentum transport mechanisms a…
