The early evolution of magnetar rotation -- II. Rapidly rotating magnetars: Implications for Gamma-Ray Bursts and Super Luminous Supernovae

Tejas Prasanna, Matthew S. B. Coleman, Matthias J. Raives +1

Rapidly rotating magnetars have been associated with gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and super-luminous supernovae (SLSNe). Using a suite of 2D magnetohydrodynamic simulations at fixed neu…

The Gravitational-Wave Signature of Core-Collapse Supernovae

David Vartanyan, Adam Burrows, Tianshu Wang +2

We calculate the gravitational-wave (GW) signatures of detailed 3D core-collapse supernova simulations spanning a range of massive stars. Most of the simulations are carried out to…

Kicks and Induced Spins of Neutron Stars at Birth

Matthew S. B. Coleman, Adam Burrows

Using simulations of non-rotating supernova progenitors, we explore the kicks imparted to and the spins induced in the compact objects birthed in core collapse. We find that the re…

The Early Evolution of Magnetar Rotation I: Slowly Rotating "Normal" Magnetars

Tejas Prasanna, Matthew S. B. Coleman, Matthias J. Raives +1

In the seconds following their formation in core-collapse supernovae, "proto"-magnetars drive neutrino-heated magneto-centrifugal winds. Using a suite of two-dimensional axisymmetr…

On the Origin of Pulsar and Magnetar Magnetic Fields

Christopher J. White, Adam Burrows, Matthew S. B. Coleman +1

In order to address the generation of neutron star magnetic fields, with particular focus on the dichotomy between magnetars and radio pulsars, we consider the properties of dynamo…

Boundary Layers of Accretion Disks: Wave-Driven Transport and Disk Evolution

Matthew S. B. Coleman, Roman R. Rafikov, Alexander A. Philippov

Astrophysical objects possessing a material surface (white dwarfs, young stars, etc.) may accrete gas from the disc through the so-called surface boundary layer (BL), in which the…

The Physical Effects of Progenitor Rotation: Comparing Two Long-Duration 3D Core-Collapse Supernova Simulations

Matthew S. B. Coleman, Adam Burrows, Christopher J. White

We analyse and determine the effects of modest progenitor rotation in the context of core-collapse supernovae by comparing two separate long-duration three-dimensional simulations…

Boundary Layers of Accretion Disks: Discovery of Vortex-Driven Modes and Other Waves

Matthew S. B. Coleman, Roman R. Rafikov, Alexander A. Philippov

Disk accretion onto weakly magnetized objects possessing a material surface must proceed via the so-called boundary layer (BL) - a region at the inner edge of the disk, in which th…

Gravitational-wave-moderated Accretion: The Case of ES Ceti

Matthew S. B. Coleman, Tejaswi Venumadhav, Barak Zackay

We show that recent observations of the compact binary, AM CVn type system, ES Ceti are fully consistent with theoretical predictions of stable mass transfer moderated by angular m…

Convective Quenching of Field Reversals in Accretion Disc Dynamos

Matthew S. B. Coleman, Evan Yerger, Omer Blaes +2

Vertically stratified shearing box simulations of magnetorotational turbulence commonly exhibit a so-called butterfly diagram of quasi-periodic azimuthal field reversals. However,…

Dwarf Nova Outbursts with Magnetorotational Turbulence

M. S. B. Coleman, I. Kotko, O. Blaes +2

The phenomenological Disc Instability Model has been successful in reproducing the observed light curves of dwarf nova outbursts by invoking an enhanced Shakura-Sunyaev paramet…

Convection Causes Enhanced Magnetic Turbulence in Accretion Disks in Outburst

Shigenobu Hirose, Omer Blaes, Julian H. Krolik +2

We present the results of local, vertically stratified, radiation MHD shearing box simulations of MRI turbulence appropriate for the hydrogen ionizing regime of dwarf nova and soft…
