We introduce the HandOff, a set of computational tools to transfer general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic and spacetime data from the numerical code IllinoisGRMHD to Harm3d. While the former simulates binary neutron star (BNS) mergers in full dynamical General Relativity, the latter specializes in modeling accretion disks around black holes (BH) over long timescales. The HandOff, then, enables us to transfer the outcome of BNS mergers after BH formation from IllinoisGRMHD to Harm3d and to evolve the post-merger system efficiently over long timescales. We show our latest results in this respect, for matter modeled as a magnetized ideal-fluid, and discuss our future plans which involve incorporating advanced equations of state and neutrino physics into BNS simulations using the HandOff approach.
