New fission fragment distributions and r-process origin of the rare-earth elements
S. Goriely, J. -L. Sida, J. -F. Lemaitre +5
Neutron star (NS) merger ejecta offer a viable site for the production of heavy r-process elements with nuclear mass numbers A > 140. The crucial role of fission recycling is respo…
Prompt merger collapse and the maximum mass of neutron stars
A. Bauswein, T. W. Baumgarte, H. -T. Janka
We perform hydrodynamical simulations of neutron-star mergers for a large sample of temperature-dependent, nuclear equations of state, and determine the threshold mass above which…
Systematics of dynamical mass ejection, nucleosynthesis, and radioactively powered electromagnetic signals from neutron-star mergers
A. Bauswein, S. Goriely, H. -T. Janka
We investigate systematically the dynamical mass ejection, r-process nucleosynthesis, and properties of electromagnetic counterparts of neutron-star (NS) mergers in dependence on t…
