A unified study of nuclear physics and dark matter constraints through gravitational-wave observations of binary neutron star mergers
Nina Kunert, Guilherme Grams, William Newton +5
Understanding the properties of strongly interacting matter at extreme densities is a central problem in fundamental physics, but neutron star mergers provide a natural laboratory…
Numerical Relativity Simulations of Dark Matter Admixed Binary Neutron Stars
Edoardo Giangrandi, Hannes R. Rüter, Nina Kunert +7
Binary neutron star mergers provide insight into strong-field gravity and the properties of ultra-dense nuclear matter. These events offer the potential to search for signatures of…
The impact of dark matter on tidal signatures in neutron star mergers with Einstein Telescope
Hauke Koehn, Edoardo Giangrandi, Nina Kunert +3
If dark matter (DM) accumulates inside neutron stars (NS), it changes their internal structure and causes a shift of the tidal deformability from the value predicted by the dense-m…
Impact of gravitational waveform model systematics on the measurement of the Hubble constant
Nina Kunert, Jonathan Gair, Peter T. H. Pang +1
Matching gravitational-wave observations of binary neutron stars with theoretical model predictions reveals important information about the sources, such as the masses and the dist…
From existing and new nuclear and astrophysical constraints to stringent limits on the equation of state of neutron-rich dense matter
Hauke Koehn, Henrik Rose, Peter T. H. Pang +10
Through continuous progress in nuclear theory and experiment and an increasing number of neutron-star observations, a multitude of information about the equation of state (EOS) for…
