摘要:

对中子星-黑洞(NSBH)双星的模拟通常考虑质量在$(5-10)M_\odot$范围内的黑洞,我们期望在那里找到大多数恒星质量的黑洞。然而,理论上不能排除低质量黑洞的存在。与中子星伴星的双星系统中的低质量黑洞可以模仿中子星-中子(NSNS)双星,因为它们提供类似的引力波(GW)和电磁(EM)信号。为了了解NSNS合并和低质量NSBH合并之间的差异和相似之处,需要进行数值模拟。在这里,我们进行了一组模拟低质量NSBH合并,包括系统兼容的GW 170817。我们的模拟使用了成分和温度依赖的状态方程(DD 2)和近似的中微子输运,但没有磁场。我们发现,低质量的NSBH合并产生的残留磁盘显着小于以前预期的质量,并与合并后流出的质量推断从GW 170817适度不对称的质量比一致。与GW 170817相容的系统产生的动力学喷出物是可以忽略的,除非质量比和黑洞自旋在允许的参数空间的边缘。这种动态喷出物是冷的,富含中子,并且对于中子星:$v\sim (0.1-0.15)c$的潮汐破裂过程中产生的喷出物来说,速度出奇地慢。我们还发现,残余黑洞的最终质量与现有的分析预测是一致的,而最终自旋的黑洞是明显大于预期-高达$χ_{\rm BH}=0.84$为我们的质量相同的情况下。

英文摘要:

Simulations of neutron star-black hole (NSBH) binaries generally consider black holes with masses in the range $(5-10)M_\odot$, where we expect to find most stellar mass black holes. The existence of lower mass black holes, however, cannot be theoretically ruled out. Low-mass black holes in binary systems with a neutron star companion could mimic neutron star-neutron (NSNS) binaries, as they power similar gravitational wave (GW) and electromagnetic (EM) signals. To understand the differences and similarities between NSNS mergers and low-mass NSBH mergers, numerical simulations are required. Here, we perform a set of simulations of low-mass NSBH mergers, including systems compatible with GW170817. Our simulations use a composition and temperature dependent equation of state (DD2) and approximate neutrino transport, but no magnetic fields. We find that low-mass NSBH mergers produce remnant disks significantly less massive than previously expected, and consistent with the post-merger outflow mass inferred from GW170817 for moderately asymmetric mass ratio. The dynamical ejecta produced by systems compatible with GW170817 is negligible except if the mass ratio and black hole spin are at the edge of the allowed parameter space. That dynamical ejecta is cold, neutron-rich, and surprisingly slow for ejecta produced during the tidal disruption of a neutron star : $v\sim (0.1-0.15)c$. We also find that the final mass of the remnant black hole is consistent with existing analytical predictions, while the final spin of that black hole is noticeably larger than expected -- up to $χ_{\rm BH}=0.84$ for our equal mass case.
