Mini-supernovae from white dwarf-neutron star mergers: Viewing-angle-dependent spectra and lightcurves
Yacheng Kang, Jin-Ping Zhu, Lijing Shao +3
Unstable mass transfer may occur during white dwarf-neutron star (WD-NS) mergers, in which the WD can be tidally disrupted and form an accretion disk around the NS. Such an accreti…

Shared Properties of Merger-driven Long-duration Gamma-Ray Bursts
Yacheng Kang, Jin-Ping Zhu, Yu-Han Yang +5
The recent detections of bright optical/infrared kilonova signals following two long-duration gamma-ray bursts (LGRBs), GRB 211211A and GRB 230307A, have significantly challenged t…

Stable Case BB/BC Mass Transfer to Form GW190425-like Massive Binary Neutron Star Mergers
Ying Qin, Jin-Ping Zhu, Georges Meynet +14
On April 25th, 2019, the LIGO-Virgo Collaboration discovered a Gravitational-wave (GW) signal from a binary neutron star (BNS) merger, i.e., GW190425. Due to the inferred large tot…
