Description
The merger of binary neutron stars can result in the formation of a massive, highly magnetized neutron star as remnant.
We study the magnetically driven wind launched from those objects.
The remnant is modelled as an axisymmetric, differentially rotating supramassive neutron star. A realistic equation of state is employed and neutrino emission is taken into account via a leakage scheme.
