GW170817 secondary component mass (1.26–1.36 M⊙) is contested in retrospective analyses; re-analysis yields higher uncertainties; tidal deformability inference depends sensitively on waveform model choice.
observational · vf_0261bfc3e49e3556
Neutron-star equation of state (EOS) interpretation from GW170817 tidal deformability (Λ̃ = 400–800) is contested: constraints depend on waveform model, high-frequency cutoff assumption, and numerical relativity calibration.
observational · vf_3b0c3817fdb3a337
Merger-remnant GW170817 interpretation (prompt collapse vs. hypermassive NS survival) is contested from gravitational-wave data alone; electromagnetic counterpart constrains but does not uniquely determine remnant outcome.
observational · vf_c132ce0968c6c1e5
Neutron-star radius inference from GW170817 tidal deformability is contested between 11–13 km range; systematic differences across inference pipelines (BILBY, LALinference, nested sampling variants) yield incompatible posteriors.
