Probing internal dissipative processes of neutron stars with gravitational waves during the inspiral- II

Tidal interactions in binary neutron star systems allow us to extract information about the equation of state inside a neutron star from gravitational wave observations. In this talk, we discuss how one could potentially probe out-of-equilibrium effects inside a neutron star by modeling the effects of tidal dissipation during the inspiral of a binary neutron star system. We first describe how to incorporate the effects of dissipation due to shear and bulk viscosity into the tidal response function. We then present the results for the dissipative tidal love number for realistic nuclear equations of state. Our results show that shear couples more strongly than bulk viscosity for the same viscosity profile inside the star.
