Description

Using a simplified mechanical-Lagrangian model we describe the gravitational waveform during the last seconds of the BNS merger phases in a dark matter environment. By considering
characteristic magnitudes for Neutron Stars from existing numerical simulations and magnitudes measurable during the BNS inspiral phase, i.e, chirp mass, mass ratio and distance we explore the effective parameter space of the Lagrangian so that the solutions of the gravitational wave polarizations, $h_+, h_x$, match with the available sensitivity ranges of the Ligo-Virgo-Kagra detectors. We discuss the relationship between this parameter space and that of the numerical simulations, which reproduce this same frequency range based on the experimental data.
