A general relativistic version of the Euler equation for perfect fluid hydrodynamics is applied to a system of two neutron stars orbiting each other. In the quasi-equilibrium phase of the evolution of this system, a first integral of motion can be derived for certain velocity fields of the neutron star fluid including the (academic) case of co-rotation with respect to the orbital motion (synchronized binaries) and the realistic case of counter-rotation with respect to the orbital motion. The velocity field leading to this latter configuration can be computed by solving three-dimensional vector and scalar Poisson equations.

  1. Celephais: efficient spectral initial data code for precessing compact binaries

    gr-qc 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Celephais constructs spectrally accurate binary-neutron-star and black-hole-neutron-star initial data with arbitrary spin orientations, using a sparse Jacobian, adaptive hp-refinement, and PN-informed eccentricity reduction.
