Theoretical light curves of the merger-nova emission, across several common optical/NIR filters, considering opacities of κ = 0.1 (left panels) and 10 cm2 g−1 (right panels), representing the lanthanide-free and -rich ejecta cases, respectively. KN emission without any magnetar spin-down enhancement is shown for comparison (dotted lines). The model fixed parameters are Pi = 5 ms, ξ = 0.3, and η = 10−3, along with two adopted ejecta masses of Mej = 10−4 (solid lines) and 10−2M (dashed lines). The upper and lower panels adopt magnetic field strengths of Bp = 1015 G and 1016 G, respectively.
