Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: 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.
