| Abstract | Observing and modeling the merger of neutron stars with each other and with black holes are challenging tasks that push understanding of the universe as embodied by Einstein’s equations for general relativity. Observatories such as National Science Foundation-funded Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) need the results of computational models to help understand the signals they receive. Computational modeling of neutron star mergers in turn is extremely demanding and requir |
