Gv. Lipunova et Vm. Lipunov, FORMATION OF A GRAVITATIONALLY BOUND OBJECT AFTER BINARY NEUTRON-STARMERGING AND GRB PHENOMENA, Astronomy and astrophysics, 329(2), 1998, pp. 29-32
The stages that follow the merging of two neutron stars are discussed.
It is shown that if a rapidly rotating gravitationally bound object i
s formed after the merging (a spinar or a massive neutron star), then
the characteristic time of its evolution is determined by a fundamenta
l value t(spin) = 3k . m(p)e(2)h(1/2)/m(e)(3)c(5/2)G(1/2) approximate
to 10(3) s.kappa, where the dimensionless value kappa = 100 divided by
1000 depends on the exact equation of state of nuclear matter. The hy
pothesis is discussed as to whether the residual optical emission of t
he a-ray bursts is pulsar-like and its evolution driven by magnetodipo
le energy losses. It is shown that binary neutron star mergings can be
accompanied by two gravitational wave burst separated either by the t
ime of spinar's collapse t(spin) or neutron star cooling time (similar
to 10 s), depending on the masses of neutron stars.
