GW170817- Last Dance of Neutron Star Pair.webm

This simulation shows the final stages of the merging of two neutron stars. The merger shown in the simulation is happening much faster in reality, within less than a hundredth of a second, and produces strong gravitational waves. The simulation illustrates one of the possible scenarios for the merger event GW170817, detected by the LIGO-Virgo gravitational-wave network. The outcome could have been a neutron star or a black hole, the latter of which is shown here. Visualisation: Wolfgang Kastaun Simulation: T. Kawamura, B. Giacomazzo, W. Kastaun, R. Ciolfi, and A.
