We continue our study of the binary neutron star parameter space by investigating the effect of the spin orientation on the dynamics, gravitational wave emission, and mass ejection during the binary neutron star coalescence. We simulate…

We report the precessional rotation of magnetically isotropic ferromagnetic nanoparticles in a viscous liquid that are subjected to a rotating magnetic field. In contrast to magnetically anisotropic nanoparticles, the rotation of which…
