Long Range Plan: Dense matter theory for heavy-ion collisions and neutron stars
Alessandro Lovato, Travis Dore, Robert D. Pisarski +61
Since the release of the 2015 Long Range Plan in Nuclear Physics, major events have occurred that reshaped our understanding of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and nuclear matter at l…
Tidal Deformability Doppelgangers: Implications of a low-density phase transition in the neutron star equation of state
Carolyn A. Raithel, Elias R. Most
Studying the properties of ultra-dense matter is one of the key goals of modern neutron star research. The measurement of the tidal deformability from the inspiral of a binary neut…
Degeneracy in the inference of phase transitions in the neutron star equation of state from gravitational wave data
Carolyn A. Raithel, Elias R. Most
Gravitational wave (GW) detections of binary neutron star inspirals will be crucial for constraining the dense matter equation of state (EoS). We demonstrate a new degeneracy in th…
Finite-temperature effects in dynamical-spacetime binary neutron star merger simulations: Validation of the parametric approach
Carolyn A. Raithel, Pedro Espino, Vasileios Paschalidis
Parametric equations of state (EoSs) provide an important tool for systematically studying EoS effects in neutron star merger simulations. In this work, we perform a numerical vali…
Improving the convergence order of binary neutron star merger simulations in the Baumgarte-Shapiro-Shibata-Nakamura formulation
Carolyn A. Raithel, Vasileios Paschalidis
High-accuracy numerical relativity simulations of binary neutron star mergers are a necessary ingredient for constructing gravitational waveform templates to analyze and interpret…
Characterizing the breakdown of quasi-universality in the post-merger gravitational waves from binary neutron star mergers
Carolyn A. Raithel, Elias R. Most
The post-merger gravitational wave (GW) emission from a binary neutron star merger is expected to provide exciting new constraints on the dense-matter equation of state (EoS). Such…
