Ruling out chaos in compact binary systems.
We investigate the orbits of compact binary systems during the final inspiral stage before coalescence by integrating the post-Newtonian equations of motion. We include spin-orbit and spin-spin coupling, which, according to a recent study [J. Levin, Phys. Rev. Lett. 84, 3515 (2000)], may cause the orbits to appear chaotic. To examine this claim, we calculate the divergence of nearby trajectorie...
متن کاملComment on "ruling out chaos in compact binary systems".
Intuitively, black hole binaries are obvious candidates for chaotic dynamics. Firstly, they are highly non-linear systems and chaos is an expression of extreme nonlinearity. Secondly, there are isolated unstable orbits around a Schwarzschild black hole, and unstable orbits are a red flag for the onset of chaos. Surely the orbits only become more unstable and more complex when there are two blac...
متن کامل0 Nuclear Matter and its Role in Supernovae , Neutron Stars and Compact Object Binary Mergers 1
The equation of state (EOS) of dense matter plays an important role in the supernova phenomenon, the structure of neutron stars, and in the mergers of compact objects (neutron stars and black holes). During the collapse phase of a supernova, the EOS at subnuclear densities controls the collapse rate, the amount of deleptonization and thus the size of the collapsing core and the bounce density. ...
متن کاملConstraining Population Synthesis Models via Empirical Binary Compact Object Merger and Supernovae Rates
The observed samples of supernovae (SN) and double compact objects (DCOs) provide several critical constraints on population-synthesis models: the parameters of these models must be carefully chosen to reproduce, among other factors, (i) the formation rates of double neutron star (NS-NS) binaries and of white dwarf-neutron star (WD-NS) binaries, estimated from binary samples, and (ii) the type ...
متن کاملGamma rays from compact binary systems
Some of the very high energy (VHE) gamma-ray sources detected with the modern generation of Cherenkov telescopes have been identified with previously known X-ray binary systems. These detections demonstrate the richness of non-thermal phenomena in compact galactic objects containing relativistic outflows or winds produced near black holes and neutron stars. Recently, the well-known microquasar ...
