Although being among the closest gamma-ray bursts, GRB 211211A poses challenges for its classification with partially inconclusive electromagnetic signatures. In this paper, we investigate four different astrophysical scenarios as possible progenitors for GRB 211211A: a binary neutron-star merger, a black-hole--neutron-star merger, a...

The multi-messenger detection of the gravitational-wave signal GW170817, the corresponding kilonova AT2017gfo and the short gamma-ray burst GRB170817A, as well as the observed afterglow has delivered a scientific breakthrough. For an accurate interpretation of all these different messengers, one requires robust theoretical models that describe...
