Electrodynamics and Dissipation in the Binary Magnetosphere of Premerger Neutron Stars

We investigate the energy release in the interacting magnetospheres of binary neutron stars (BNSs) with global 3D force-free electrodynamics simulations. The system dynamics depend on the inclinations χ _1 and χ _2 of the stars’ magnetic dipole moments relative to their orbital angular momentum. The...
