Simulation Captures The Most Complex 1.5 Seconds In A Neutron Star Collision – And You Can Watch It HereStill image from the numerical simulation. Three concentric contours in blue and green show the density of the matter around the central remnant black hole The magenta lines show the magnetic field lines and the arrows display the outflow going perpendicular to the countours wider side out into the universe.
