Magnetized Outflows from Short-lived Neutron Star Merger Remnants Can Produce a Blue Kilonova

We present a 3D general-relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulation of a short-lived neutron star remnant formed in the aftermath of a binary neutron star merger. The simulation uses an M1 neutrino transport scheme to track neutrino–matter interactions and is well suited to studying the resulting nu...
