Beyond moments: relativistic Lattice-Boltzmann methods for radiative transport in computational astrophysics

L. R. Weih, A. Gabbana, D. Simeoni +3

We present a new method for the numerical solution of the radiative-transfer equation (RTE) in multidimensional scenarios commonly encountered in computational astrophysics. The me…

A lower bound on the maximum mass if the secondary in GW190814 was once a rapidly spinning neutron star

Elias R. Most, L. Jens Papenfort, Lukas R. Weih +1

The recent detection of GW190814 featured the merger of a binary with a primary having a mass of and a secondary with a mass of . While th…

Two-moment scheme for general-relativistic radiation hydrodynamics: a systematic description and new applications

Lukas R. Weih, Hector Olivares, Luciano Rezzolla

We provide a systematic description of the steps necessary -- and of the potential pitfalls to be encountered -- when implementing a two-moment scheme within an Implicit-Explicit (…

The heavier the better: how to constrain mass ratios and spins of high-mass neutron-star mergers

Elias R. Most, Lukas R. Weih, Luciano Rezzolla

The first binary neutron-star merger event, GW170817, and its bright electromagnetic counterpart have provided a remarkable amount of information. By contrast, the second event, GW…

Postmerger Gravitational-Wave Signatures of Phase Transitions in Binary Mergers

Lukas R. Weih, Matthias Hanauske, Luciano Rezzolla

With the first detection of gravitational waves from a binary system of neutron stars, GW170817, a new window was opened to study the properties of matter at and above nuclear-satu…

Optimal neutron-star mass ranges to constrain the equation of state of nuclear matter with electromagnetic and gravitational-wave observations

Lukas R. Weih, Elias R. Most, Luciano Rezzolla

Exploiting a very large library of physically plausible equations of state (EOSs) containing more than members and yielding more than stellar models, we conduct a…
