We present new numerical relativity results of neutron star mergers with chirp mass $1.188M_odot$ and mass ratios $q=1.67$ and $q=1.8$ using finite-temperature equations of state (EOS), approximate neutrino transport and a subgrid model for magnetohydrodynamics-induced turbulent viscosity. The EOS are compatible with nuclear and astrophysical constraints and include a new microphysical model derived from ab-initio calculations based on the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approach. We report for the first time evidence for accretion-induced prompt collapse in high-mass-ratio mergers, in which the tidal disruption of the companion and its accretion onto the primary star determine prompt black hole formation. As a result of the tidal disruption, an accretion disc of neutron-rich and cold matter forms with baryon masses ${sim}0.15M_odot$, and it is significantly heavier than the remnant discs in equal-masses prompt collapse mergers. Massive dynamical ejecta of order ${sim}0.01M_odot$ also originate from the tidal disruption. They are neutron rich and expand from the orbital plane with a crescent-like geometry. Consequently, bright, red and temporally extended kilonova emission is predicted from these mergers. Our results show that prompt black hole mergers can power bright electromagnetic counterparts for high-mass-ratio binaries, and that the binary mass ratio can be in principle constrained from multimessenger observations.

This study addresses the collapse behavior of neutron star (NS) mergers expressed through the binary threshold mass M_thr for prompt black hole (BH) formation, which we determine by relativistic hydrodynamical simulations for 40 equation of state (Eo
S) models. M_thr can be well described by various fit formulae involving stellar parameters of nonrotating NSs. Using these relations we compute which constraints on NS radii and the tidal deformability are set by current and future merger detections revealing information about the merger product. We systematically investigate the impact of the binary mass ratio q=M_1/M_2 and assemble different fits, which make different assumptions about a-priori knowlegde. We find fit formulae for M_thr including an explicit q dependence, which are valid in a broad range of 0.7<=q<=1 and which are nearly as tight as relations for fixed mass ratios. For most EoS models except extreme cases M_thr of asymmetric mergers is equal or smaller than the one of equal-mass binaries. The impact of the binary mass asymmetry on M_thr becomes stronger with more extreme mass ratios, while M_thr is approximately constant for small deviations from q=1. We describe that a phase transition to deconfined quark matter can leave a characteristic imprint on the collapse behavior. The presence of quark matter can reduce the stability of the remnant and thus M_thr relative to a purely hadronic reference model. Comparing the threshold mass and the tidal deformability Lambda_thr of a system with M_thr can yield peculiar combinations of those two quantities, where M_thr is particularly small in relation to Lambda_thr. Hence, a combined measurement of both quantities can indicate the onset of quark deconfinement. We point out new univariate relations between M_thr and stellar properties of high-mass NSs, which can be employed for direct EoS constraints or consistency checks. (abridged)
The detections of gravitational waves (GWs) from binary neutron star (BNS) systems and neutron star--black hole (NSBH) systems provide new insights into dense matter properties in extreme conditions and associated high-energy astrophysical processes.
However, currently information about NS equation of state (EoS) is extracted with very limited precision. Meanwhile, the fruitful results from the serendipitous discovery of the $gamma$-ray burst alongside GW170817 show the necessity of early warning alerts. Accurate measurements of the matter effects and sky location could be achieved by joint GW detection from space and ground. In our work, based on two example cases, GW170817 and GW200105, we use the Fisher information matrix analysis to investigate the multiband synergy between the space-borne decihertz GW detectors and the ground-based Einstein Telescope (ET). We specially focus on the parameters pertaining to spin-induced quadrupole moment, tidal deformability, and sky localization. We demonstrate that, (i) only with the help of multiband observations can we constrain the quadrupole parameter; and (ii) with the inclusion of decihertz GW detectors, the errors of tidal deformability would be a few times smaller, indicating that many more EoSs could be excluded; (iii) with the inclusion of ET, the sky localization improves by about an order of magnitude. Furthermore, we have systematically compared the different limits from four planned decihertz detectors and adopting two widely used waveform models.
Detection of electromagnetic counterparts of gravitational wave (GW) sources is important to unveil the nature of compact binary coalescences. We perform three-dimensional, time-dependent, multi-frequency radiative transfer simulations for radioactiv
ely powered emission from the ejecta of black hole (BH) - neutron star (NS) mergers. Depending on the BH to NS mass ratio, spin of the BH, and equations of state of dense matter, BH-NS mergers can eject more material than NS-NS mergers. In such cases, radioactively powered emission from the BH-NS merger ejecta can be more luminous than that from NS-NS mergers. We show that, in spite of the expected larger distances to BH-NS merger events, observed brightness of BH-NS mergers can be comparable to or even higher than that of NS-NS mergers. We find that, when the tidally disrupted BH-NS merger ejecta are confined to a small solid angle, the emission from BH-NS merger ejecta tends to be bluer than that from NS-NS merger ejecta for a given total luminosity. Thanks to this property, we might be able to distinguish BH-NS merger events from NS-NS merger events by multi-band observations of the radioactively powered emission. In addition to the GW observations, such electromagnetic observations can potentially provide independent information on the nature of compact binary coalescences.
We present fitting formulae for the dynamical ejecta properties and remnant disk masses from a large sample of numerical relativity simulations. The considered data include some of the latest simulations with microphysical nuclear equations of state
(EOS) and neutrino transport as well as other results with polytropic EOS available in the literature. Our analysis indicates that the broad features of the dynamical ejecta and disk properties can be captured by fitting expressions that depend on mass ratio and reduced tidal parameter. The comparative analysis of literature data shows that microphysics and neutrino absorption have a significant impact on the dynamical ejecta properties. Microphysical nuclear equations of state lead to average velocities smaller than polytropic EOS, while including neutrino absorption results in larger average ejecta masses and electron fractions. Hence, microphysics and neutrino transport are necessary to obtain quantitative models of the ejecta in terms of the binary parameters.
In this work we study the formation of the first two black hole-neutron star (BHNS) mergers detected in gravitational waves (GW200115 and GW200105) from massive stars in wide isolated binary systems - the isolated binary evolution channel. We use 560
BHNS binary population synthesis model realizations from Broekgaarden et al. (2021a) and show that the system properties (chirp mass, component masses and mass ratios) of both GW200115 and GW200105 match predictions from the isolated binary evolution channel. We also show that most model realizations can account for the local BHNS merger rate densities inferred by LIGO-Virgo. However, to simultaneously also match the inferred local merger rate densities for BHBH and NSNS systems we find we need models with moderate kick velocities ($sigmalesssim 10^2,rm{km},rm{s}^{-1}$) or high common-envelope efficiencies ($alpha_{rm{CE}}gtrsim 2$) within our model explorations. We conclude that the first two observed BHNS mergers can be explained from the isolated binary evolution channel for reasonable model realizations.
