Descrizione
What is the nature of neutron stars? Where are r-process elements formed in the
Universe? Multimessenger observations of neutron star mergers might provide us
with the key to answer these and other important open questions in theoretical
astrophysics. In this talk, I will review our current theoretical understanding
of how neutron star mergers proceed and of how the dynamics is imprinted in
their multimessenger emissions. I will present recent simulation results and
discuss their implications. Finally, I will talk about future challenges and
prospective for this field.
