چکیده

A solution to an equilibrium of irrotational binary polytropic stars in Newtonian gravity is expanded in a power of epsilon = a(0)/R, where R and a(0) are the separation of the binary system and the radius of each star for R = infinity. For the polytropic index n = 1, the solutions are given almost analytically up to order epsilon(6). We have found that in general an equilibrium solution should have the velocity component along the orbital axis and that the central density should decrease when R decreases. Our almost analytic solutions can be used to check the validity of numerical solutions.

Stationary states of irrotational binary neutron star systems and their evolution due to gravitational wave emission

We have succeeded in obtaining exact configurations of irrotational binary systems for compressible (polytropic) equations of state. Our models correspond to binaries of equal mass neutron star systems in the viscosity free limit. By using the obtained sequences of stationary states, the evolution of binary systems of irrotational neutron stars due to gravitational wave emission has been examin...

The orbital separation of compact binary stars will shrink with time due to the emission of gravitational radiation. This inspiralling phase of a binary system’s evolution generally will be very long compared to the system’s orbital period, but the final coalescence may be dynamical and driven to a large degree by hydrodynamic effects, particularly if there is a critical separation at which the...

Relativistic models for binary neutron stars with arbitrary spins

We introduce a new numerical scheme for solving the initial value problem for quasiequilibrium binary neutron stars allowing for arbitrary spins. The coupled Einstein field equations and equations of relativistic hydrodynamics are solved in the Wilson-Mathews conformal thin sandwich formalism. We construct sequences of circular-orbit binaries of varying separation, keeping the rest mass and cir...

We present a new numerical study of the equilibrium and stability properties of close binary systems. We use the smoothed-particle hydrodynamics (SPH) technique both to construct accurate equilibrium configurations in three dimensions and to follow their hydrodynamic evolution. We adopt a simple polytropic equation of state p = Kρ with Γ = 5/3 and K =constant within each star, applicable to low...
