Projecting the likely importance of weak-interaction-driven bulk viscosity in neutron star mergers
Elias R. Most, Steven P. Harris, Christopher Plumberg +6
In this work, we estimate how much bulk viscosity driven by Urca processes is likely to affect the gravitational wave signal of a neutron star coalescence. In the late inspiral, we…
On accretion disks formed in MHD simulations of black hole-neutron star mergers with accurate microphysics
Elias R. Most, L. Jens Papenfort, Samuel D. Tootle +1
Remnant accretion disks formed in compact object mergers are an important ingredient in the understanding of electromagnetic afterglows of multi-messenger gravitational-wave events…
GW170817 and GW190814: tension on the maximum mass
Antonios Nathanail, Elias R. Most, Luciano Rezzolla
The detection of the binary events GW170817 and GW190814 has provided invaluable constraints on the maximum mass of nonrotating configurations of neutron stars, . H…
Fast ejecta as a potential way to distinguish black holes from neutron stars in high-mass gravitational-wave events
Elias R. Most, L. Jens Papenfort, Samuel Tootle +1
High-mass gravitational-wave events in the neutron-star mass range, such as GW190425, have recently started to be detected by the LIGO/Virgo detectors. If the masses of the two bin…
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…
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…
