▪ Abstract The discovery of counterparts in X-ray and optical to radio wavelengths has revolutionized the study of γ-ray bursts, until recently the most enigmatic of astrophysical …
We present the results of 3D Newtonian SPH simulations of the merger of a neutron star binary. The microscopic properties of matter are described by the physical equation of state …

Millisecond pulsars with strong magnetic fields may be formed through several processes, eg accretion-induced collapse of magnetized white dwarfs, merger of two neutron stars …

We consider fireball models where the ejecta have a range of bulk Lorentz factors, so that the inner (lower Γ) parts may carry most of the mass, or even most of the energy. The outer …
We discuss the afterglows from the evolution of both spherical and anisotropic fireballs decelerating in an inhomogeneous external medium. We consider both the radiative and …

Recent months have witnessed dramatic progress in our understanding of short γ-ray burst (SGRB) sources. There is now general agreement that SGRBs—or at least a substantial …
Long-lived emission, known as afterglow, has now been detected from about a dozen γ-ray bursts. Distance determinations place the bursts at cosmological distances, with redshifts, z …

We present an analytical approach to calculate the hydrodynamics of the interaction between a relativistic ejecta and a surrounding medium, whose evolution serves as a model …
Results of 3D, Newtonian hydrodynamic calculations of the last stages of the inspiral and the final coalescence of neutron star binary systems are described. The focus is on sligthly …
