The collision and merger of two neutron stars—the incredibly dense remnants of collapsed stars—are some of the most energetic events in the universe, producing a variety of signals that can be ...
The transformation of neutrinos in a neutron star merger could be crucial to shaping the way events of the collision unfold. For the first time, a team of physicists has simulated how neutrinos change ...

Simulation reveals emergence of jet from binary neutron star merger followed by black hole formation
The merger simulated by Hayashi and his colleagues is between two neutron stars of different masses, one of 1.25 and the other of 1.65 solar masses. Their simulation was rooted in the so-called SFHo ...
"We studied the last several orbits before the merger, when the entwined magnetic fields undergo rapid and dramatic changes, ...
When two neutron stars collide, they unleash some of the most powerful forces in the universe, creating ripples in spacetime, showers of radiation, and even the building blocks of gold and platinum.
Merger of two neutron stars in the aftermath of a supernova may have been observed for the first time, though questions ...
New simulations of neutron star mergers reveal that the mixing and changing of tiny particles called neutrinos impacts how the merger unfolds, including the composition and structure of the merger ...
