Impact of a mean field dynamo on neutron star mergers leading to magnetar remnants

Elias R. Most

We investigate the impact of a mean field model for the -dynamo potentially active in the post-merger phase of a binary neutron star coalescence. We do so by deriving equations…

Electromagnetic precursors to black hole - neutron star gravitational wave events: Flares and reconnection-powered fast-radio transients from the late inspiral

Elias R. Most, Alexander A. Philippov

The presence of magnetic fields in the late inspiral of black hole -- neutron star binaries could lead to potentially detectable electromagnetic precursor transients. Using general…

Neutron Star Atmosphere-Ocean Dynamics

Joonas Nättilä, James Y-K. Cho, Jack W. Skinner +2

We analyze the structure and dynamics of the plasma atmospheres and Coulomb-liquid oceans on neutron stars. Salient dynamical parameters are identified and their values estimated f…

Flares, jets and quasi-periodic outbursts from neutron star merger remnants

Elias R. Most, Eliot Quataert

Using numerical relativity simulations with a subgrid dynamo prescription to generate strong initial magnetic fields, we investigate the possibility of launching a jet-like outflow…

Theoretical and Experimental Constraints for the Equation of State of Dense and Hot Matter

Rajesh Kumar, Veronica Dexheimer, Johannes Jahan +57

This review aims at providing an extensive discussion of modern constraints relevant for dense and hot strongly interacting matter. It includes theoretical first-principle results…

Three-dimensional dynamics of strongly twisted magnetar magnetospheres: Kinking flux tubes and global eruptions

J. F. Mahlmann, A. A. Philippov, V. Mewes +3

The origins of the various outbursts of hard X-rays from magnetars (highly magnetized neutron stars) are still unknown. We identify instabilities in relativistic magnetospheres tha…
