The Influence of Neutrinos on r-Process Nucleosynthesis in the Ejecta of Black Hole-Neutron Star Mergers

Luke F. Roberts, Jonas Lippuner, Matthew D. Duez +6

During the merger of a black hole and a neutron star, baryonic mass can become unbound from the system. Because the ejected material is extremely neutron-rich, the r-process rapidl…

Electromagnetic outflows in a class of scalar-tensor theories: binary neutron star coalescence

Marcelo Ponce, Carlos Palenzuela, Enrico Barausse +1

As we showed in previous work, the dynamics and gravitational emission of binary neutron star systems in certain scalar-tensor theories can differ significantly from that expected…

Projected Constraints on Scalarization with Gravitational Waves from Neutron Star Binaries

Laura Sampson, Nicolas Yunes, Neil Cornish +5

Certain scalar-tensor theories have the property of endowing stars with scalar hair, sourced either by the star's own compactness (spontaneous scalarization) or, for binary systems…

Interaction of misaligned magnetospheres in the coalescence of binary neutron stars

Marcelo Ponce, Carlos Palenzuela, Luis Lehner +1

We study the dependence of the electromagnetic luminosity --produced by interactions of force-free magnetospheres-- on dipole inclinations in binary neutron star systems. We show t…

Dynamical scalarization of neutron stars in scalar-tensor gravity theories

Carlos Palenzuela, Enrico Barausse, Marcelo Ponce +1

We present a framework to study generic neutron-star binaries in scalar-tensor theories of gravity. Our formalism achieves this goal by suitably interfacing a post-Newtonian orbita…

Linking electromagnetic and gravitational radiation in coalescing binary neutron stars

Carlos Palenzuela, Luis Lehner, Steven L. Liebling +4

We expand on our study of the gravitational and electromagnetic emissions from the late stage of an inspiraling neutron star binary as presented in Ref. \cite{Palenzuela:2013hu}. I…
