Shedding light on the angular momentum evolution of binary neutron star merger remnants: a semi-analytic model

Matteo Lucca, Laura Sagunski, Federico Guercilena +1

The main features of the gravitational dynamics of binary neutron star systems are now well established. While the inspiral can be precisely described in the post-Newtonian approxi…

Gravitational Test Beyond the First Post-Newtonian Order with the Shadow of the M87 Black Hole

Dimitrios Psaltis, Lia Medeiros, Pierre Christian +185

The 2017 Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) observations of the central source in M87 have led to the first measurement of the size of a black-hole shadow. This observation offers a new…

Monitoring the Morphology of M87* in 2009-2017 with the Event Horizon Telescope

Maciek Wielgus, Kazunori Akiyama, Lindy Blackburn +26

The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) has recently delivered the first resolved images of M87*, the supermassive black hole in the center of the M87 galaxy. These images were produced…

3D magnetised jet break-out from neutron-star binary merger ejecta: afterglow emission from the jet and the ejecta

Antonios Nathanail, Ramandeep Gill, Oliver Porth +2

We perform three-dimensional (3D) general-relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations to model the jet break-out from the ejecta expected to be produced in a binary neutron-star m…

SYMBA: An end-to-end VLBI synthetic data generation pipeline

F. Roelofs, M. Janssen, I. Natarajan +203

Realistic synthetic observations of theoretical source models are essential for our understanding of real observational data. In using synthetic data, one can verify the extent to…

On the opening angle of magnetised jets from neutron-star mergers: the case of GRB170817A

Antonios Nathanail, Ramandeep Gill, Oliver Porth +2

The observations of GW170817/GRB170817A have confirmed that the coalescence of a neutron-star binary is the progenitor of a short gamma-ray burst. In the standard picture of a shor…
