Nonlinear Gravitational-wave Memory from Binary Black Hole Mergers
Some astrophysical sources of gravitational-waves can produce a “memory effect,” which causes a permanent displacement of the test masses in a freely-falling gravitational-wave detector. The Christodoulou memory is a particularly interesting nonlinear form of memory that arises from the gravitational-wave stress-energy tensor’s contribution to the distant gravitational-wave field. This nonlinea...
متن کاملMergers of Binary Compact Objects
We work out the effects of hypercritical accretion, which transfers mass from the secondary to the primary (first-born) neutron star (NS) in a binary, showing that the mass of the primary would end up ∼ > 0.6M⊙ greater than the secondary NS in contradiction with the very nearly equal masses of the two NS’s in binaries measured to date. We discuss that the primary NS evolves into a low-mass blac...
متن کاملRelativistic SPH Calculations of Compact Binary Mergers
We review recent progress in understanding the hydrodynamics of compact binary mergers using relativistic smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) codes. Recent results are discussed for both double neutron stars and black hole – neutron star binaries. The gravitational wave signals from these mergers contain a lot of information about the masses and radii of the stars and the equation of state of...
متن کاملRadio Counterparts of Compact Binary Mergers Detectable in Gravitational Waves: a Simulation for an Optimized Survey
Mergers of binary neutron stars and black hole–neutron star binaries produce gravitational-wave(GW) emission and outflows with significant kinetic energies. These outflows result in radio emissions through synchrotron radiation. We explore the detectability of these synchrotron-generated radio signals by follow-up observations of GW merger events lacking a detection of electromagnetic counterp...
متن کاملGravitational Waves from Binary Black Hole Mergers inside Stars.
We present results from a controlled numerical experiment investigating the effect of stellar density gas on the coalescence of binary black holes (BBHs) and the resulting gravitational waves (GWs). This investigation is motivated by the proposed stellar core fragmentation scenario for BBH formation and the associated possibility of an electromagnetic counterpart to a BBH GW event. We employ fu...
