Understand

(abridged) We investigate the quark deconfinement phase transition in the context of binary neutron star (BNS) mergers.

We employ a new finite-temperature composition-dependent equation of state (EOS) with a first order phase transition between hadrons and deconfined quarks to perform numerical relativity simulations of BNS mergers.
The softening of the EOS due to the phase transition causes the merger remnants to be more compact and to collapse to a black hole (BH) at earlier times.
The phase transition is imprinted on the postmerger gravitational wave (GW) signal duration, amplitude, and peak frequency.
