Anomalous coupling in radiation mediated shocks}
A. Levinson, A. Granot, A. Vanthieghem +1
We summarize recent attempts to unravel the role of plasma kinetic effects in radiation mediated shocks. Such shocks form in all strong stellar explosions and are responsible for t…

Fission and fusion of heavy nuclei induced by the passage of a radiation-mediated shock in BNS mergers
Alon Granot, Amir Levinson, Ehud Nakar
We compute the structure of a Newtonian, multi-ion radiation-mediated shock (RMS) for different compositions anticipated in various stellar explosions. We use a multifluid RMS mode…

Relativistic shock breakout from a stellar wind
Alon Granot, Ehud Nakar, Amir Levinson
We construct an analytic model for the breakout of a relativistic radiation mediated shock from a stellar wind, and exploit it to calculate the observational diagnostics of the bre…
