Three dimensional evolution of differentially rotating magnetized neutron stars
read the original abstract
We construct a new three-dimensional general relativistic magnetohydrodynamics code, in which a fixed mesh refinement technique is implemented. To ensure the divergence-free condition as well as the magnetic flux conservation, we employ the method by Balsara (2001). Using this new code, we evolve differentially rotating magnetized neutron stars, and find that a magnetically driven outflow is launched from the star exhibiting a kink instability. The matter ejection rate and Poynting flux are still consistent with our previous finding (Shibata et al., 2011) obtained in axisymmetric simulations.

A magnetar formation in binary neutron star merger
High-resolution GR neutrino-radiation MHD simulation of 1.35-1.35 Msun BNS merger shows KHI-driven B-field amplification to magnetar levels (~10^50 erg, factor >=316) in 3 ms post-merger.

Implementation of multi-grid Poisson solver in numerical relativity and its application to gravitational collapse of massive star
A grid-based multi-grid Poisson solver is implemented in numerical relativity, tested on puncture black holes and neutron stars, and used in a neutrino-radiation hydrodynamics simulation of 9 solar mass star collapse ...
