The maximum offsets of binary neutron star mergers from host galaxies
Ilya Mandel, Om Sharan Salafia, Andrew Levan +1
We analytically derive, and illustrate with a population synthesis model, the maximum offset of binary neutron star mergers ejected from their host galaxies. This approximate maxim…
Natal kicks of compact objects
Sergei Popov, Bernhard Müller, Ilya Mandel
When compact objects - neutron stars and black holes - are formed in a supernova explosion, they may receive a high velocity at formation, which may reach or even exceed 1000 km s-…
The metallicity dependence of long-duration gamma-ray bursts
Paul Disberg, Anne Lankreijer, Martyna Chruślińska +5
Both theoretical models and observations of collapsar created gamma-ray bursts -- typically long-duration gamma-ray bursts (LGRBs) -- suggest that these transients cannot occur at…
The Kick Velocity Distribution of Isolated Neutron Stars
Paul Disberg, Ilya Mandel
Neutron stars (NSs) are thought to receive natal kicks at their formation in supernovae. In order to investigate the magnitude of these kicks, we analyze the proper motions and dis…
