Towards accelerated nuclear-physics parameter estimation from binary neutron star mergers: Emulators for the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equations
Brendan T. Reed, Rahul Somasundaram, Soumi De +5
Gravitational-wave observations of binary neutron-star (BNS) mergers have the potential to revolutionize our understanding of the nuclear equation of state (EOS) and the fundamenta…
Igniting weak interactions in neutron star postmerger accretion disks
Soumi De, Daniel Siegel
The merger of two neutron stars or of a neutron star and a black hole typically results in the formation of a post-merger accretion disk. Outflows from disks may dominate the overa…
Common Envelope Wind Tunnel: Range of Applicability and Self-Similarity in Realistic Stellar Envelopes
Rosa Wallace Everson, Morgan MacLeod, Soumi De +2
Common envelope evolution, the key orbital tightening phase of the traditional formation channel for close binaries, is a multistage process that presents many challenges to the es…
Common Envelope Wind Tunnel: The Effects of Binary Mass Ratio and Implications for the Accretion-Driven Growth of LIGO Binary Black Holes
Soumi De, Morgan MacLeod, Rosa Wallace Everson +3
We present three-dimensional local hydrodynamic simulations of flows around objects embedded within stellar envelopes using a "wind tunnel" formalism. Our simulations model the com…
Stringent constraints on neutron-star radii from multimessenger observations and nuclear theory
Collin D. Capano, Ingo Tews, Stephanie M. Brown +6
The properties of neutron stars are determined by the nature of the matter that they contain. These properties can be constrained by measurements of the star's size. We obtain stri…
Constraining the neutron-matter equation of state with gravitational waves
Michael McNeil Forbes, Sukanta Bose, Sanjay Reddy +3
We show how observations of gravitational waves from binary neutron star (BNS) mergers over the next few years can be combined with insights from nuclear physics to obtain useful c…
