研究開始時の研究の概要 |
Here, in order to measure heavy elements synthesized in NS merger events, I propose to perform end-to-end multi-dimensional numerical simulations from the actual merger to the kilonova emission. This will help estimate the contribution of NS mergers to synthesis of heavy elements in the Universe.

研究実績の概要 |
The objective of this project is to investigate neutron star mergers, which are anticipated to generate short gamma-ray bursts and instigate the nucleosynthesis of heavy elements. The subsequent radioactive decay of these elements is projected to give rise to a distinctive astrophysical event known as a "kilonova."
Collaborating with theoretical specialists, we investigated the impact of relativistic jets on kilonova emissions. We have demonstrated, for the first time, that late-stage relativistic jets (commonly observed in most short gamma-ray bursts) interact with the ejecta from neutron star mergers to produce an early blue emission. Our findings suggest that this interaction can elucidate the enigmatic early "blue early kilonova" emissions observed.

今後の研究の推進方策 |
I plan to proceed as intended. The next step involves conducting calculations for the kilonova emission in a highly realistic manner using state-of-the-art hydrodynamic and radiative transfer simulations.
