The imprint of individual neutron star spins on ejecta, -process nucleosynthesis, and kilonovae in binary neutron star mergers

Beyhan Karakas, Rahime Matur, David Radice +2

To leading order, the gravitational-wave (GW) signal from binary neutron stars depends on the individual spins, and , only through the effective spin parameter $χ_{\rm e…

Hyperaccreting Magnetised Neutron Stars inside Rotating Massive Envelopes: Low-Power Jets and Precursor Flares

Patrick Chi-Kit Cheong, Christopher L. Fryer, David Radice

The engulfment of a neutron star (NS) by a massive companion initiates a highly dynamic common-envelope (CE) evolution phase. As the NS spirals into the dense stellar core, it is s…

From Multimessenger Inference to Simulations: A Ranked Ensemble of Finite-Temperature Equations of State

Max Jacobi, Giulia Huez, Sebastiano Bernuzzi +1

We construct a set of microphysical, finite-temperature equations of state (EOSs) for numerical simulations of neutron star mergers and core-collapse supernovae that is consistent…

Magnetar Formation from Accretion Induced Collapse of White Dwarfs

Luís Felipe Longo Micchi, Patrick Chi-Kit Cheong, David Radice

We aim to characterize the post-collapse evolution of accretion-induced collapse (AIC) remnants of rapidly rotating, magnetized white dwarfs, focusing on their rotational, magnetic…

Exact Mass Conservation in Binary Neutron Star Merger Simulations

Boris Daszuta, Sebastiano Bernuzzi, Joan Fontbuté +4

A long-standing problem in the simulation of neutron star spacetimes is the treatment of vacuum regions outside the stars. The use of an artificial low-density atmosphere is a comm…

Hyperaccreting Neutron Stars inside Massive Envelopes: The Implausibility of Thorne-Żytkow Objects

Patrick Chi-Kit Cheong, David Radice, Christopher L. Fryer

The evolution of neutron stars (NSs) embedded within massive stellar envelopes is a critical phase in binary stellar evolution, potentially leading to the formation of Thorne-Żytko…

Gamma-ray Signatures of r-Process Radioactivity from the Collapse of Magnetized White Dwarfs

Tetyana Pitik, Yong-Zhong Qian, David Radice +1

We predict the gamma-ray line emission from -process nuclei synthesized in the ejecta of the accretion-induced collapse (AIC) of a magnetized, rapidly rotating white dwarf. Usin…

GR-Athena++: Binary Neutron Star Merger Simulations with Neutrino Transport

Boris Daszuta, Sebastiano Bernuzzi, Maximilian Jacobi +4

We present general-relativistic radiation magnetohydrodynamics simulations of binary neutron star mergers performed with GR-Athena++. Neutrino transport is treated using a moment-b…

Collapse of Magnetized White Dwarfs as site of Heavy Element Formation and Kilonova Signal

Tetyana Pitik, David Radice, Daniel Kasen +3

We present the first end-to-end calculation connecting the accretion-induced collapse (AIC) of a magnetized, rapidly rotating white dwarf to observable kilonova signatures, combini…
