Description
I will briefly review recent progress in numerical simulations of binary neutron star mergers, and discuss how these signals can help distinguish among different classes of equations of state, including hadronic models, quark–hadron crossover scenarios, and first-order phase transitions.
We also investigate uncertainties in post-merger gravitational-wave emission using a non-parametric Bayesian approach to the equation of state, without assuming a specific microphysical model. This framework may enable robust predictions for post-merger signals and their sensitivity to the presence of quark matter.
