中子星与黑洞的合并:单族与两族方案

Merger of a Neutron Star with a Black Hole: one-family vs. two-families scenario

Francesco Di Clemente, Alessandro Drago, Giuseppe Pagliara

摘要:

在黑洞-中子星合并后,通常会出现千诺瓦信号。信号的强度与中子星物质的状态方程有关,随状态方程刚度的增大而增大。NICER最近从PSR J 0740 +6620的分析中得到的结果表明,状态方程相当僵硬,因此预期的kilonova信号是强的,至少如果黑洞的质量不超过$\sim 10 \mathrm{\,M}_\odot$,如果一维自旋参数不是太小,轨道是椭圆形的。我们比较了通过考虑满足最新观测的中子星物质的状态方程,并假设只有一个家庭的紧凑型恒星存在的两个家庭的情况下预测的结果得到的预测。在后者中,一个软强子状态方程产生非常紧凑的恒星物体,而一个相当僵硬的夸克物质状态方程产生大量的奇异夸克星,满足NICER结果。在两族情形中,预期的kilonova信号非常弱:特别是强子星-黑洞合并产生的信号比单族情形弱得多,因为强子状态方程非常软。而且,根据现有的唯一模拟,奇异夸克星-黑洞合并不会产生千诺瓦信号,因为喷出的质量量可以忽略不计。如果具有一维自旋参数$χ_\mathrm{BH}\gtrsim 0.2$或质量为$\mathrm M_\mathrm{BH} \lesssim 4 \mathrm M_\odot$的黑洞可以出现在合并中,这些预测将很容易用新一代的探测器进行检验。

英文摘要:

A kilonova signal is generally expected after a Black Hole - Neutron Star merger. The strength of the signal is related to the equation of state of neutron star matter and it increases with the stiffness of the latter. The recent results obtained by NICER from the analyses of PSR J0740+6620 suggest a rather stiff equation of state and the expected kilonova signal is therefore strong, at least if the mass of the Black Hole does not exceed $\sim 10 \mathrm{\,M}_\odot$ and if the adimensional spin parameter is not too small and the orbit is prograde. We compare the predictions obtained by considering equations of state of neutron star matter satisfying the most recent observations and assuming that only one family of compact stars exists with the results predicted in the two-families scenario. In the latter a soft hadronic equation of state produces very compact stellar objects while a rather stiff quark matter equation of state produces massive strange quark stars, satisfying NICER results. The expected kilonova signal in the two-families scenario is very weak: in particular the Hadronic Star - Black Hole merger produces a much weaker signal than in the one-family scenario because the hadronic equation of state is very soft. Moreover, according to the only existing simulation, the Strange Quark Star - Black Hole merger does not produce a kilonova signal because the amount of mass ejected is negligible. These predictions will be easily tested with the new generation of detectors if Black Holes with an adimensional spin parameter $χ_\mathrm{BH}\gtrsim 0.2$ or a mass $\mathrm M_\mathrm{BH} \lesssim 4 \mathrm M_\odot$ can be present in the merger.
