Late-time emission-line profiles from kilonova models

S. A. Sim, O. Just, Z. Xiong +10

Numerical simulations suggest that neutron star mergers eject material with complex, non-spherical density and composition distributions. Here we use two-dimensional configurations…

Exploring the diversity of kilonovae with 3D radiative transfer I. The polar direction

Christine E. Collins, Luke J. Shingles, Vimal Vijayan +7

We present 3D kilonova radiative transfer simulations for a series of binary neutron star merger models. The masses of the neutron stars are varied as well as the total mass of the…

R-process heating implementation in hydrodynamic simulations with neural networks

Oliver Just, Zewei Xiong, Gabriel Martínez-Pinedo

Neutron-rich outflows in neutron-star mergers (NSMs) or other explosive events can be subject to substantial heating through the release of rest-mass energy in the course of the ra…

Kilonova ejecta opacity inferred from new large-scale HFR atomic calculations in all elements between Ca (Z = 20) and Lr (Z = 103)

Jérôme Deprince, Gururaj Wagle, Sirine Ben Nasr +7

In the context of kilonova (KN) modeling, the present work focusses on large-scale atomic data and opacity computations for all heavy elements from Ca to Lr, with a special effort…

Nucleosynthesis Conditions in Outflows of White Dwarfs Collapsing to Neutron Stars

Eirini Batziou, Robert Glas, H. -Thomas Janka +3

Accretion-induced collapse (AIC) or merger-induced collapse (MIC) of white dwarfs (WDs) in binary systems is an interesting path to neutron star (NS) and magnetar formation, altern…

Luminosity predictions for the first three ionisation stages of W, Pt and Au to probe potential sources of emission in kilonova

M. McCann, L. P. Mulholland, Z. Xiong +7

A large number of R-matrix calculations of electron impact excitation for heavy elements (Z > 70) have been performed in recent years for applications in fusion and astrophysics re…
