Binary Neutron Star Merger Simulations with Microphysical Equation of State using Spritz
Fatemeh Hossein Nouri, Jay V. Kalinani, Bruno Giacomazzo +2
We present the first binary neutron star merger simulations performed with the general-relativistic magnetohydrodynamics (GRMHD) Spritz code employing a finite-temperature tabulate…
Modelling the delayed shock-breakout emission following jet-launching binary neutron star mergers via relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations simulations
Matteo Pais, Riccardo Ciolfi, Andrea Pavan
In binary neutron star (BNS) mergers launching a relativistic jet, an electromagnetic (EM) signal is produced when the jet-driven shock breaks out of the merger ejecta. The observe…
Simulating the quasi-ballistic regime of a short Gamma-Ray Burst jet
Emma Dreas, Andrea Pavan, Riccardo Ciolfi +1
This study extends the 3D magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation of a jet emerging from a binary neutron star (BNS) merger presented in Pavan et al. (2023), in which an incipient jet…
Magnetically-induced outflows from binary neutron star merger remnants
Daniel M. Siegel, Riccardo Ciolfi
Recent observations by the Swift satellite have revealed long-lasting (), "plateau-like" X-ray afterglows in the vast majority of short gamma-ray bursts…
Modelling the Magnetic Field Configuration of Neutron Stars
Riccardo Ciolfi
The properties of the extremely strong magnetic fields of neutron stars affect in a unique way their evolution and the associated phenomenology. Due to the lack of constraints from…
Magnetic Field Instabilities in Neutron Stars
Riccardo Ciolfi
Magnetic fields represent a crucial aspect of the physics and astrophysics of neutron stars. Despite its great relevance, the internal magnetic field configuration of neutron stars…
Magnetically driven winds from differentially rotating neutron stars and X-ray afterglows of short gamma-ray bursts
Daniel M. Siegel, Riccardo Ciolfi, Luciano Rezzolla
Besides being among the most promising sources of gravitational waves, merging neutron star binaries also represent a leading scenario to explain the phenomenology of short gamma-r…
