A Monte-Carlo based relativistic radiation hydrodynamics code with a higher-order scheme
Kyohei Kawaguchi, Sho Fujibayashi, Masaru Shibata
We develop a new relativistic radiation hydrodynamics code based on the Monte-Carlo algorithm. In this code, we implement a new scheme to achieve the second-order accuracy in time…
Lanthanide Features in Near-infrared Spectra of Kilonovae
Nanae Domoto, Masaomi Tanaka, Daiji Kato +3
The observations of GW170817/AT2017gfo have provided us with evidence that binary neutron star mergers are sites of -process nucleosynthesis. However, the observed signatures in…
Opacity of the highly ionized lanthanides and the effect on the early kilonova
Smaranika Banerjee, Masaomi Tanaka, Daiji Kato +3
We investigate the effect of the presence of lanthanides (Z = 57- 71) on the kilonova at t~hours after the neutron star merger for the first time. For this purpose, we calculate th…
Electromagnetic counterparts of binary neutron star mergers leading to a strongly magnetized long-lived remnant neutron star
Kyohei Kawaguchi, Sho Fujibayashi, Kenta Hotokezaka +2
We explore the electromagnetic counterparts that will associate with binary neutron star mergers for the case that remnant massive neutron stars survive for s after…
