Remnant properties of binary neutron star mergers undergoing prompt collapse
Arnab Dhani, Alessandro Camilletti, David Radice +4
We study the properties of remnants formed in prompt-collapse binary neutron star mergers. We consider non-spinning binaries over a range of total masses and mass ratios across a s…
Direct Measurement of the Accretion Disk Formed in Prompt Collapse Mergers with Future Gravitational-Wave Observatories
Arnab Dhani, Alessandro Camilletti, Alessio Ludovico De Santis +6
The production site of heavy r-process elements, such as Gold and Uranium, is uncertain. Neutron star mergers are the only astrophysical phenomenon in which we have witnessed their…
Long-lived neutron-star remnants from asymmetric binary neutron star mergers: element formation, kilonova signals and gravitational waves
Sebastiano Bernuzzi, Fabio Magistrelli, Maximilian Jacobi +3
We present 3D general-relativistic neutrino-radiation hydrodynamics simulations of two asymmetric binary neutron star mergers producing long-lived neutron stars remnants and spanni…
General relativistic hydrodynamic simulations of binary strange star mergers
Francesco Grippa, Aviral Prakash, Domenico Logoteta +2
We perform fully general-relativistic simulations of binary strange star mergers considering two different approaches for thermal effects. The first uses a cold equation of state (…
