General-Relativistic Hydrodynamics Simulation of a Neutron Star — Sub-Solar-Mass Black Hole Merger - 3D Density Visualization

<p>Matter density distribution of our simulation of a neutron star -- sub-solar mass black hole merger; cf. color bar to obtain a density estimate. The gray region represents the apparent horizon of the black hole.</p> <p>Visualization: Ivan Markin (University of Potsdam); Data: Swami Vivekanandji Chaurasia (Stockholm University)</p> <p>Simulations for the project have been performed on the national supercomputer HPE Apollo Hawk at the High Performance Computing (HPC) Center Stuttgart (HLRS) under the grant number GWanalysis/44189, on the GCS Supercomputer SuperMUC NG at the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre (LRZ) [project pn29ba], and on the HPC systems Lise/Emmy of the North German Supercomputing Alliance (HLRN) [project bbp00049] for the final production runs. The particular simulation shown here has been run on HLRN.</p>
