Description
Three-dimensional simulations can provide the most accurate modelling of the merger between stars, this includes the precise computation of their gravitational-wave signals. With the state-of-the-art 3DMHD code AREPO we can study stellar mergers at many different scales, ranging from giant stars to neutron stars, releasing GWs all over the frequency spectrum.
With these simulations we can predict the detectability of such events with present and future GW detectors.
