Probing the incompressibility of nuclear matter at ultra-high density through the prompt collapse of asymmetric neutron star binaries
A. Perego, D. Logoteta, D. Radice +5
Using 250 neutron star merger simulations with microphysics, we explore for the first time the role of nuclear incompressibility in the prompt collapse threshold for binaries with…
Radiation hydrodynamics modeling of kilonovae with SNEC
Zhenyu Wu, Giacomo Ricigliano, Rahul Kashyap +2
We develop a method to compute synthetic kilonova light curves that combines numerical relativity simulations of neutron star mergers and the radiation-hydrodynamic…
Numerical relativity simulations of prompt collapse mergers: threshold mass and phenomenological constraints on neutron star properties after GW170817
Rahul Kashyap, Abhishek Das, David Radice +10
We determine the threshold mass for prompt (no bounce) black hole formation in equal-mass neutron star (NS) mergers using a new set of 227 numerical relativity simulations. We cons…
A Horizon Study for Cosmic Explorer: Science, Observatories, and Community
Matthew Evans, Rana X Adhikari, Chaitanya Afle +29
This Horizon Study describes a next-generation ground-based gravitational-wave observatory: Cosmic Explorer. With ten times the sensitivity of Advanced LIGO, Cosmic Explorer will p…
Signatures of deconfined quark phases in binary neutron star mergers
Aviral Prakash, David Radice, Domenico Logoteta +6
(abridged) We investigate the quark deconfinement phase transition in the context of binary neutron star (BNS) mergers. We employ a new finite-temperature composition-dependent equ…
Are rare rogue fluctuations generic to strongly nonlinear and non-integrable systems?
Rahul Kashyap, Surajit Sen
Extensive dynamical simulations are used to explore the possible existence of sudden sufficiently large energy or rogue fluctuations (RF) at late times and across short time window…
