Abstract Gravitational waves emanating from binary neutron star inspirals, alongside electromagnetic transients resulting from the aftermath of the GW170817 merger, have been successfully detected. However, the intricate post-merger dynamics that bridge these two sets of observables remain enigmatic. This includes if, and when, the post-merger remnant star collapses to a black hole, and what are the necessary conditions to power a short gamma-ray burst, and other observed electromagnetic counterparts. Our focus is on the detection of gravitational wave (GW) emissions from hyper-massive neutron stars (NSs) formed through binary neutron star (BNS) mergers. Utilizing several kilohertz GW detectors, we simulate BNS mergers within the detection limits of LIGO-Virgo-KARGA O4. Our objective is to ascertain the fraction of simulated sources that may emit detectable post-merger GW signals. For kilohertz detectors equipped with a new cavity design, we estimate that approximately 1.1%-32% of sources would emit a detectable post-merger GW signal. This fraction is contingent on the mass converted into gravitational wave energy, ranging from $0.01M_{\rm sun}$ to $0.1M_{\rm sun}$. Furthermore, by evaluating other well-regarded proposed kilohertz GW detectors, we anticipate that the fraction can increase to as much as 2.1%-61% under optimal performance conditions.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
