Addition of tabulated equation of state and neutrino leakage support to IllinoisGRMHD

Leonardo R. Werneck, Zachariah B. Etienne, Ariadna Murguia-Berthier +11

We have added support for realistic, microphysical, finite-temperature equations of state (EOS) and neutrino physics via a leakage scheme to IllinoisGRMHD, an open-source GRMHD cod…

Handing off the outcome of binary neutron star mergers for accurate and long-term post-merger simulations

Federico G. Lopez Armengol, Zachariah B. Etienne, Scott C. Noble +20

We perform binary neutron star (BNS) merger simulations in full dynamical general relativity with IllinoisGRMHD, on a Cartesian grid with adaptive-mesh refinement. After the remnan…

HARM3D+NUC: A new method for simulating the post-merger phase of binary neutron star mergers with GRMHD, tabulated EOS and neutrino leakage

Ariadna Murguia-Berthier, Scott C. Noble, Luke F. Roberts +25

The first binary neutron star merger has already been detected in gravitational waves. The signal was accompanied by an electromagnetic counterpart including a kilonova component p…

Accurate closed-form trajectories of light around a Kerr black hole using asymptotic approximants

Ryne J. Beachley, Morgan Mistysyn, Joshua A. Faber +2

Highly accurate closed-form expressions that describe the full trajectory of photons propagating in the equatorial plane of a Kerr black hole are obtained using asymptotic approxim…

Numerical generation of vector potentials from specified magnetic fields

Zachary J. Silberman, Thomas R. Adams, Joshua A. Faber +2

Many codes have been developed to study highly relativistic, magnetized flows around and inside compact objects. Depending on the adopted formalism, some of these codes evolve the…

An asymptotically consistent approximant for the equatorial bending angle of light due to Kerr black holes

Nathaniel S. Barlow, Steven J. Weinstein, Joshua A. Faber

An accurate closed-form expression is provided to predict the bending angle of light as a function of impact parameter for equatorial orbits around Kerr black holes of arbitrary sp…
