Abstract

Binary neutron star mergers result in relatively long-lived transient states known as kilonovae. By developing methods that allow numerical relativity simulations to describe far longer periods of time than previously possible, the assumptions used in radiative transfer simulations of the ejecta are subjected to scrutiny and a far more nuanced picture is developed indicating when the assumptions become valid.
