SDSC’s Comet Supercomputer Helps Uncover Noisy Neutron Star Collisions

A series of simulations using multiple supercomputers, including Comet at the San Diego Supercomputer Center at UC San Diego, suggests that when the neutron stars’ masses are different enough, the result is far noisier, making them easier to detect.
