For a sound interpretation, one needs to compare such observations against detailed Numerical Relativity simulations, which are essential tools to explore the dynamics and physics of compact binary mergers. To date, essentially all simulation codes that solve the full set of Einstein\u2019s equations are performed in the framework of Eulerian hydrodynamics. The exception is our recently developed Numerical Relativity code SPHINCS_BSSN which solves the commonly used BSSN formulation of the Einstein equations on a structured mesh and the matter equations via Lagrangian particles. We show here, for the first time, SPHINCS_BSSN neutron star merger simulations with piecewise polytropic approximations to four nuclear matter equations of state. In this set of neutron star merger simulations, we focus on perfectly symmetric binary systems that are irrotational and have 1.3 M\u2299 masses. We introduce some further methodological refinements (a new way of steering dissipation, an improved particle\u2013mesh mapping), and we explore the impact of the exponent that enters in the calculation of the thermal pressure contribution. We find that it leaves a noticeable imprint on the gravitational wave amplitude (calculated via both quadrupole approximation and the \u03a84 formalism) and has a noticeable impact on the amount of dynamic ejecta. Consistent with earlier findings, we only find a few times 10\u22123M\u2299 as dynamic ejecta in the studied equal mass binary systems, with softer equations of state (which are more prone to shock formation) ejecting larger amounts of matter. In all of the cases, we see a credible high-velocity (\u223c0.5\u20260.7c) ejecta component of \u223c10\u22124M\u2299 that is launched at contact from the interface between the two neutron stars. Such a high-velocity component has been suggested to produce an early, blue precursor to the main kilonova emission, and it could also potentially cause a kilonova afterglow.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/sym14061280","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,22]],"date-time":"2022-06-22T23:11:19Z","timestamp":1655939479000},"page":"1280","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Thinking Outside the Box: Numerical Relativity with Particles"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Stephan","family":"Rosswog","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Astronomy and Oskar Klein Centre, Stockholm University, 10619 Stockholm, Sweden"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3877-0487","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Peter","family":"Diener","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Computation & Technology and Department of Physics & Astronomy, Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, LA 70803, USA"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4487-9403","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Francesco","family":"Torsello","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Astronomy and Oskar Klein Centre, Stockholm University, 10619 Stockholm, Sweden"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"021053","article-title":"GWTC-2: Compact Binary Coalescences Observed by LIGO and Virgo during the First Half of the Third Observing Run","volume":"11","author":"Abbott","year":"2021","journal-title":"Phys.
