Relativistic Hydrodynamics in Close Binary Systems: Analysis of Neutron-Star Collapse
G. J. Mathews, P. Marronetti, J. R. Wilson
We discuss the underlying relativistic physics which causes neutron stars to compress and collapse in close binary systems as has recently been observed in numerical (3+1) dimensio…
