The Dawn of Multi-Messenger Astronomy: Neutron Star Mergers and Gravitational Waves

Description:

Neutron star mergers instigate a wealth of observable astrophysical signals, offering key insights into interdisciplinary questions in stellar astronomy, nuclear physics, cosmology, and atomic physics. The coalescence of neutron stars and/or black holes produces gravitational wave emission, only recently accessible to ground-based laser-interferometric detectors. Additionally, these mergers can incite emission...
