Plasticity of Neutron Star Crusts
Matthew E Caplan, Nevin T Smith, Ashley J Bransgrove +1
We use first-principles molecular dynamics simulations to study the deformation and breaking of neutron star crusts. When simulating with strain rates several orders of magnitude s…
Anisotropic neutron star crust, solar system mountains, and gravitational waves
J. A. Morales, C. J. Horowitz
"Mountains" or non-axisymmetric deformations of rotating neutron stars (NS) efficiently radiate gravitational waves (GW). We consider analogies between NS mountains and surface fea…
Detectability of Sub-Solar Mass Neutron Stars Through a Template Bank Search
Ananya Bandopadhyay, Brendan Reed, Surendra Padamata +6
We study the detectability of gravitational-wave signals from sub-solar mass binary neutron star systems by the current generation of ground-based gravitational-wave detectors. We…
Evolution of fission-ignited supernova properties with uranium enrichment
Alex Deibel, C. J. Horowitz, M. E. Caplan
Type-Ia supernovae (SN Ia) are powerful stellar explosions that provide important distance indicators in cosmology. There is significant tension between values of the Hubble consta…
Modeling the Galactic Neutron Star Population for Use in Continuous Gravitational Wave Searches
Brendan T. Reed, Alex Deibel, C. J. Horowitz
Searches for continuous gravitational waves from \textit{unknown} Galactic neutron stars provide limits on the shapes of neutron stars. A rotating neutron star will produce gravita…
Total Energy in Supernova Neutrinos and the Tidal Deformability and Binding Energy of Neutron Stars
Brendan Reed, C. J. Horowitz
The energy radiated in supernova neutrinos is a fundamental quantity that is closely related to the gravitational binding energy of a neutron star. Recently the tidal deformability…
