Binary neutron star mergers with evolving merger rates or yields are strongly preferred over constant scenarios to explain Milky Way r-process enrichment, with Bayes factors exceeding 10^20, yet remain in tension with short gamma-ray burst observations.
Population synthesis of helium star-NS systems yields DNS delay time distributions that peak between 80-250 Myr across metallicities, with 15% merging within 80 Myr and over 20% after 1 Gyr.
A one-zone model shows that observed [Y/Eu] and [Sr/Eu] trends require a prompt first-peak channel, delayed BNS mergers dominating Eu, and delayed AGB s-process with t_min > 0.3 Gyr.
GRB intrinsic duration distributions show a redshift-dependent plateau only at z>2 and for soft bursts, indicating collapsar dominance at high redshift and non-collapsar contributions at low redshift, with progenitor radius constrained to a few tenths of a solar radius.
Latest GW neutron star merger rates are consistent with short GRBs being produced by BNS mergers if jets are wide or rates low, with NSBH mergers subdominant.
The paper proposes a high-redshift (z>2) origin for GRB 061201 by combining afterglow constraints with deep JWST near-infrared imaging of a faint candidate host.
