Black Hole-Neutron Star Binary Merger: Dependence On Black Hole Spin Orientation And Equations Of State

Abstract

Black hole-neutron star binary mergers are the one of most promising sources of gravitational waves for next generation ground-based gravitational-wave detectors such as Advanced LIGO, Advanced VIRGO, and KAGRA, and gravitational waves from black hole-neutron star binary are expected to be detected in a next decade. Black hole-neutron star binary mergers have also been proposed as the progenitor of short gamma-ray-bursts in the so-called merger scenario. Moreover, some part of neutron-rich material of the neutron star is ejected dynamically during the merger, and the emission powered by decay of radioactive nuclei would occur (Kilonova/Macronova), which reflect the property of the binary. The gravitational waveform, the disk formation and the mass ejection from black hole-neutron star binary merger depends on the mass ratio of the binary, the equation of state of the neutron star and the black hole spin. In particular, the misalignment of the black hole spin with the orbital angular momentum of the binary cause the orbital precession, could affect the dynamics of the merger. We systematically performed numerical-relativity simulations for black hole - neutron star binary mergers with a variety of the BH spin orientation and nuclear-theory-based equations of state of the NS. In this talk, we will show the result we obtain from the simulations and discuss the effects of the spin misalignment on the merger process.
