We study the impact of out-of-equilibrium, dissipative effects on the dynamics of inspiraling neutron stars. We find that modeling dissipative processes (such as those from the stars internal effective fluid viscosity) requires that one…

The properties of neutron star matter above nuclear density are not precisely known. Gravitational waves emitted from binary neutron stars during their late stages of inspiral and merger contain imprints of the neutron-star equation of…

The detection of gravitational waves from the merger of binary neutron stars events (GW170817, GW190425) and subsequent estimations of tidal deformability play a key role in constraining the behaviour of dense matter. In addition, massive…

Because all neutron stars share a common equation of state, tidal deformability constraints from the compact binary coalescence GW170817 have implications for the properties of neutron stars in other systems. Using equation-of-state…

It has been suggested by Weinberg et al. (2013) that an instability due to the nonlinear coupling of a neutron star's tide to its $p$- and $g$-modes could affect the gravitational-wave phase evolution of a neutron-star binary. Weinberg…
