The Neutron Star Merger Delay-time Distribution, R-process “Knees,” and the Metal Budget of the Galaxy
For a sample of 18 currently known recycled millisecond pulsars (rMSPs) that are in double neutron star (DNS) systems, and 42 rMSPs with similar properties that are not in DNS pairs, we analyze the distributions of the characteristic age, τ _c , and the time-until-merger of the double systems, τ _gw...
