Targets of Numerical Relativity • Collapse of massive stellar core, NS/BH-NS/BH merger • Gravitational waveform • EOS of dense matter • High energy astrophysical phenomena
What is required to explore the phenomena and what is the problems ?

Collapse of massive star • Dense (hot) matter region • ⇒ neutrinos drive the thermal / chemical evolution of the core • Neutrinos and weak interaction must be included • Strong dependence of weak rates on temperature ⇒ a finite temperature EOS is required • Currently, Shen EOS and LS EOS available • ⇒ β-equilibrium may be achieved • Very different two timescales • Numerically, very ‘ stiff ’ source terms appear • Generally, implicit schemes are necessary • In my study, sophisticated GR leakage scheme is adopted to solve in an explicit manner
Merger of NS-NS/BH • Late inspiral phase : NS is ‘ cold ‘ • kBT/ EF << 1 : NS will be described well with zero temperature EOS (Cold EOS) • Extension to finite temperature • Meger phase : Compression, shock heating • kBT/ EF ~ O(0.1) : a finite temperature EOS is required • Currently, Shen EOS and LS EOS • Prompt BH formation and small disk • Effects of finite temperature may be miner (Cold EOS may be sufficient) • HMNS formation or massive disk formation • Shock heating and neutrino emission, etc. are important (finite temperature EOS required)
Problems in NR ① • Cauthy problem in GR is constrained system • There are constraint equations (similar to no-monopole condition and gauss’low in EM) • Everything is in terms of energy-momentum tensor • All equations of source field are obtained from • One can not add any source terms to the system • If added, constraint violations will lead to termination of simulations • Neutrino energy momentum should be considered
Argument quantities Evolved quantities Problems in NR ② • Existence ofut(Lorentz factor) • There is a procedure to solve nonlinear equations forut • Total energy (depends on ut) is evolved • There is a procedure to recover T or (P) from the evolved total energy • The above two procedure couples in a complex manner Nonlinear eq. with EOS table search e depends on ut Nonlinear eq. with EOS table search
Problems in NR ② • Due to these complexity, solving the equation implicitly is very hard in NR • Iteration includes two loops : no guarantee for convergence • Explicit scheme is required • A resolution : GR leakage scheme • Utilizing the fact that ‘ leakage timescale ’ is much longer than the weak timescale • Approximate treatment of neutrino cooling based on ‘ leakage time scale ’
GR leakage scheme (hydro) • Basic equation : • Energy-momentum tensor of neutrinos : • ‘Trapped neutrino’ and ‘Streaming neutrino’ parts • Trapped neutrino part is included into Fluid part • The equation to be solved Only leakage timescale appears
GR leakage scheme (Lepton conservation) • Source terms: • local rates (electron capture, pair processes : weak timescale) • leak out of trapped neutrinos to be streaming neutrinos (leakage timescale) • Problem : • How to treat the local rates • andβ-equilibrium
GR leakage scheme (Lepton conservation) • In the hot matter region, weak timescale becomes too short and the source term becomes too large • We introduce some limiters to the source terms • Assumption: Ynu’s cannot exceed the corresponding values at β-equilibrium • First, trial evolution of total lepton fraction Yl • Note that the source term is in leakage timescale • Under the assumption of β-equilibrium, Ynubeta’s are calculated. These provide the limiters • Second, evolution of lepton fractions • If the local rates are below the limiters, we simply evolve them • On the other hand, if the local rates exceeds the limiters, the values at β-equilibrium are adopted
GR leakage scheme (Lepton conservation) • Important issues : • Use the EOS table with arguments (ρ,Yl, T) • In this case, only one dimensional search is required • Otherwise two dimensional search (Yl, e) ⇒ (Ye, T) required, which in general may be convergent
Summary of microphysics • EOS: Tabulated EOS can be used • Currently Shen EOS + electrons + radiation • Weak rates • Electron capture:FFN1985, rate on NSE back ground • e±annihilation: Cooperstein et al. 1985, Itoh et al. 1996 • plasmon decay: Ruffert et al. 1996, Itoh et al. 1996 • Bremsstrahlung: Burrows et al. 2006, Itoh et al. 1996 • Neutrino leakage • Opacity based on Burrows et al. 2006 • (n, p, A) scattering • Including correction such as ion-ion correlation • (n, p, A) absorption
GR leakage works well • Neutrino luminosities consistent with result by 1D GR radiation hydro (Liebendoefer et al. 04) • Collapse of 15 Msun model by WHW02 • Besides convection induced modulation in luminosities • Neutrino luminosities in BNS merger and GRB will be estimated Results by Sekiguchi (2009) Liebendoerfer et al. (2004)
GR leakage works well • Results consistent with Liebendorfer et al. 2004

PopIII core collapse • BH formation with microphysics • black hole excision technique for hydrodynamics & microphysics • puncture evolution for geometry • Initial condition • Simplified model (S = Ye = const core) • S=7kB, 8kB; Ye=0.5 Ye entropy per baryon ( kB ) density log( g/cm3 )
Collapse dynamics : Weak bounce • Do not directly collapse to BH • Weak bounce • At bounce • ρ ~ 1013 g/cm3 • subnuclear ! • T ~ 18 MeV • Ye ~ 0.2
Bounce due to gas pressure • He → 2p + 2n • Gas pressure (Γ=5/3) increase • Indeed Γth >4/3 • Gas pressure dominates at ρ~1013g/cm3, T~18 MeV • EOS becomes stiffer ⇒ weak bounce

Expected neutrino pair annihilation Neutrino luminosity ~ 1054 erg/s Average energy ~ 20-30MeV According to the results by Setiawan et al. pair annihilation luminosity of >1052 erg/s is expected Setiawan et al. (2005) To estimate the pair annihilation rates more accurately, Ray-tracing calculations are planned (Harikae, Sekiguchi, Takiwaki, Kotake)
~300km Neutrino interaction is important The results in which first order correction to the neutron / proton magnetic moment is considered
Evolution of BH mass • Assuming Kerr BH geometry • BH mass = 6~7 Msolar • Rotational energy = MBH – Mirr~ 1054 erg • If strong magnetic field exists, the rotational energy can be extracted • Mass accretion rates is still large as > several Msolar/s
Summary • Effects of GR cannot be ignored • In NR, to treat weak interactions such as electron capture and neutrino cooling is difficult • We developed GR leakage scheme in which these can be treated approximately • GR leakage scheme works well • We applied the GR leakage code to collapse of PopIII core • Neutrino luminosity is sufficient to produce the GRB fireball by neutrino pair annihilation
Very preliminary result (just started) • Simulations are ongoing with electron capture and GR neutrino leakage • Some room for improvement in EOS construction, atmosphere treatments, etc • If you have good EOS, let us use it ! Density profile
