摘要:

中子星状态方程通过影响中子星的半径和对黑洞的质量转移特性,影响黑洞-中子星(BHNS)双星的合并动力学.我们研究了这些影响,通过模拟一些BHNS二进制在充分的广义相对论使用混合伪谱/有限差分代码。我们考虑了几种中子星物质的EoS模型,包括Gamma=2和Gamma=2.75多面体以及基于核理论的Shen EoS。对于使用沈EOS的模型,我们考虑两个限制的组成演变:无源平流和瞬时β平衡。为了关注EoS效应,我们将所有模型的质量比固定为3:1,初始对齐的黑洞自旋为a/m=0.5。我们证实了早期的研究,发现更紧凑的恒星产生更强的引力波信号,但较小的合并后吸积盘。我们还改变了EoS,同时保持压实固定。所有的合并定性相似,但我们发现签名的EoS的波形和尾部和磁盘结构。

英文摘要:

The merger dynamics of a black hole-neutron star (BHNS) binary is influenced by the neutron star equation of state (EoS) through the latter's effect on the neutron star's radius and on the character of the mass transfer onto the black hole. We study these effects by simulating a number of BHNS binaries in full general relativity using a mixed pseudospectral/finite difference code. We consider several models of the neutron star matter EoS, including Gamma=2 and Gamma=2.75 polytropes and the nuclear-theory based Shen EoS. For models using the Shen EoS, we consider two limits for the evolution of the composition: source-free advection and instantaneous beta-equilibrium. To focus on EoS effects, we fix the mass ratio to 3:1 and the initial aligned black hole spin to a/m=0.5 for all models. We confirm earlier studies which found that more compact stars create a stronger gravitational wave signal but a smaller postmerger accretion disk. We also vary the EoS while holding the compaction fixed. All mergers are qualitatively similar, but we find signatures of the EoS in the waveform and in the tail and disk structures.
