The binary neutron star (BNS) merger GW170817 was the first astrophysical source detected in gravitational waves and multi-wavelength electromagnetic radiation. The almost simultaneous observation of a pulse of gamma-rays proved that BNS…

We simulate the merger of binary neutron stars and analyze the spectral properties of their gravitational waveforms. For the stars we construct hybrid equations of state (EoSs) with a standard nuclear matter EoS at low densities,…
