Recent years have seen the blossoming of multi-messenger astrophysics where gravitational waves, photons and neutrinos provide complementary views on cosmic explosions involving some of the Universe’s most enigmatic objects, namely neutron stars and black holes. The first observation of a neutron star merger via both gravitational waves and, days later, an electromagnetic flash called "kilonova" enabled huge scientific leaps forward and was therefore celebrated as "2017 Breakthrough of the Year". Multi-messenger astrophysics has an enormous potential to solve many longstanding puzzles such as the origin of the heaviest elements or the nature of the densest matter in the Universe, provided…
