Magnetically driven shocks from neutron star merger remnants can reheat ejecta to nuclear statistical equilibrium, alter r-process yields, and produce observable changes in kilonova color and light curves.
Monte Carlo simulation of post-merger remnant shows pair annihilation rates greatly increased in cold low-density regions and inelastic electron scattering important for heavy-lepton neutrino thermalization, processes not included in prior merger simulations.
