“…Secondly, the quantitati ve ef fects of weak reactions may depend on the details of the merger dynamics and the shock heating strength during the merging, and therefore on the adopted EoS (Sekiguchi et al 2015 ) and possibly, to some extent, on numerics. In addition, fla v our conversions of the neutrino species can also affect the neutron richness, hence the nucleosynthesis in the merger ejecta (Wu & Tamborra 2017 ;George et al 2020 ).…”

“…We note that recent BNSM simulations that include the effect of weak interactions generally predict less neutron-rich conditions in the early-time ejecta, particularly for the component that originates from the collisional interface of the two NSs(Wanajo et al 2014;Radice et al 2016;Bovard et al 2017;Vincent et al 2020;George et al 2020; Kullmann et al 2021). However, the exact electron fraction (Ye) distribution of this component still vary substantially in different works and require further improved treatment of weak interactions in simulations.…”

“…Moreover, neutrino oscillations could change the nucleosynthesis signature of the ejecta and reduce their lanthanide content (e.g. Zhu et al 2016;George et al 2020). Apart from the dynamical ejecta and subsequent neutrino-driven winds from the surface of the hyper-massive NS, additional fast and lanthanide-poor material could be ejected in connection to magnetic-field effects (e.g.…”
