Advances in Numerical Relativity

increasing accuracy of simulations

TD et al., PRD96 (2017) 121501 TD et al., PDP 2018: CFP18169

clean convergence across multiple resolutions NR phase uncertainties below the difference to state-of-the-art analytical waveform models

NRTidal

Ansatz: in PN (NLO): Incorporate EOB/NR information: NRtidal became the standard model to interpret BNS data within the LSC

Gravitational Waves: Parameter Estimation

  • Determine the Equation of State

Phys.Rev.Lett. 119 (2017) no.16, 161101

GW observations favor NSs with smaller radii

NRTidal model gives 80% lower bound

EM Signals – Kilonova

  • pseudo-black body radiation

from r-process elements

  • formation of

heavy elements

Incorporating NR results

  • Predictions about ejecta mass and

compositions

– dynamical ejecta: – tidal tail – shock heating – disk winds – neutrino driven winds – magnetic winds – secular
