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…

Scaling of Small-Scale Dynamo Properties in the Rayleigh-Taylor Instability

Valentin Skoutnev, Elias R. Most, Amitava Bhattacharjee +1

We derive scaling relations based on free-fall and isotropy assumptions for the kinematic small-scale dynamo growth rate and amplification factor over the course of the mixing, sat…

A new public code for initial data of unequal-mass, spinning compact-object binaries

L. Jens Papenfort, Samuel D. Tootle, Philippe Grandclément +2

The construction of constraint-satisfying initial data is an essential element for the numerical exploration of the dynamics of compact-object binaries. While several codes have be…

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…
