The structure of weakly-magnetized -ray burst jets

Ore Gottlieb, Omer Bromberg, Chandra B. Singh +1

The interaction of gamma-ray burst (GRB) jets with the dense media into which they are launched promote the growth of local hydrodynamic instabilities along the jet boundary. In a…

Electromagnetic signals from the decay of free neutrons in the first hours of neutron star mergers

Ore Gottlieb, Abraham Loeb

The first hours following a neutron star merger are considered to provide several UV/optical/NIR signals: -decay emission from free neutrons, radioactive decay of shocked heavy…

High efficiency photospheric emission entailed by formation of a collimation shock in gamma-ray bursts

Ore Gottlieb, Amir Levinson, Ehud Nakar

The primary dissipation mechanism in jets of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), and the high efficiency of the prompt emission are long standing issues. One possibility is strong collimation…

Detectability of neutron star merger afterglows

Ore Gottlieb, Ehud Nakar, Tsvi Piran

VLBI and JVLA observations revealed that GW170817 involved a narrow jet () that dominated the afterglow peak at our viewing angle, $ θ_{\rm obs} \approx 20^\…

Illuminating Gravitational Waves: A Concordant Picture of Photons from a Neutron Star Merger

M. M. Kasliwal, E. Nakar, L. P. Singer +78

Merging neutron stars offer an exquisite laboratory for simultaneously studying strong-field gravity and matter in extreme environments. We establish the physical association of an…
