High-energy emission as signature of magnetic field amplification in neutron star mergers

The merger of a binary neutron star system is suggested as the central engine of short gamma-ray bursts (sGRBs). For the merger process, simulations predict that magnetic field is amplified beyond magnetar field strength by Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities. With the Large Area Telescope (LAT), bursts...
