Neutron star spin-kick velocity correlation effect on binary neutron star coalescence rates and spin-orbit misalignment of the components

open access: yes, 2007
We study the effect of the neutron star spin -- kick velocity alignment observed in young radio pulsars on the coalescence rate of binary neutron stars. Two scenarios of the neutron star formation are considered: when the kick is always present and when ...

Properties of Neutron Star Critical Collapses [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2010
Critical phenomena in gravitational collapse opened a new mathematical vista into the theory of general relativity and may ultimately entail fundamental physical implication in observations. However, at present, the dynamics of critical phenomena in gravitational collapse scenarios are still largely unknown. My thesis seeks to understand the properties

GW170817 constraints analyzed with Gogny forces and momentum-dependent interactions

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2020
A set of equations of state obtained from finite-range Gogny forces and momentum-dependent interactions is used to investigate the recent observation of gravitational waves from the binary neutron star merger GW170817 event. For this set of interactions,

Signatures for quark matter from multi-messenger observations

open access: yes, 2019
We review the prospects for detecting quark matter in neutron star cores. We survey the proposed signatures and emphasize the importance of data from neutron star mergers, which provide access to dynamical properties that operate on short timescales that

Neutron Star Kicks from Asymmetric Collapse

open access: yes, 2003
Many neutron stars are observed to be moving with spatial velocities, in excess of 500km/s. A number of mechanisms have been proposed to give neutron stars these high velocities.

Neutron Stars: Formation and Structure [PDF]

open access: yesActa Phys.Polon. B29 (1998) 25-46, 1998
A short introduction is given to astrophysics of neutron stars and to physics of dense matter in neutron stars. Observed properties of astrophysical objects containing neutron stars are discussed. Current scenarios regarding formation and evolution of neutron stars in those objects are presented.

Black Hole-Neutron Star Mergers: Disk Mass Predictions

open access: yes, 2012
Determining the final result of black hole-neutron star mergers, and in particular the amount of matter remaining outside the black hole at late times and its properties, has been one of the main motivations behind the numerical simulation of these ...

Neutrino Annihilation between Binary Neutron Stars

open access: yes, 2001
We calculate the neutrino pair annihilation rate into electron pairs between two neutron stars in a binary system. We present a closed formula for the energy deposition rate at any point between the stars, where each neutrino of a pair derives from each ...

Consequences of a strong phase transition in the dense matter equation of state for the rotational evolution of neutron stars

open access: yes, 2017
We explore the implications of a strong first-order phase transition region in the dense matter equation of state in the interiors of rotating neutron stars, and the resulting creation of two disjoint families of neutron-star configurations (the so ...

Detecting the Hadron-Quark Phase Transition with Gravitational Waves

open access: yesUniverse, 2019
The long-awaited detection of a gravitational wave from the merger of a binary neutron star in August 2017 (GW170817) marks the beginning of the new field of multi-messenger gravitational wave astronomy.
