Monte Carlo simulation of the resolution volume for the SEQUOIA spectrometer
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2015 Monte Carlo ray tracing simulations, of direct geometry spectrometers, have been particularly useful in instrument design and characterization. However, these tools can also be useful for experiment planning and analysis.

Hyperon-Mixed Neutron Star Matter and Neutron Stars [PDF]
Progress of Theoretical Physics, 2002 Effective Σ − n and Σ − Σ − interactions are derived fromthe G-matrix calculations for {n+Σ − } matter and employed in the investigation of hyperon mixing in neutron star matter. The threshold densities ρt(Y ) at which hyperons start to appear are between 2ρ0 and 3ρ0 (where ρ0 is the normal nuclear density) for both Λ and Σ − , and their fractions ...

Scattering searches for dark matter in subhalos: Neutron stars, cosmic rays, and old rocks [PDF]
, 2022 In many cosmologies dark matter clusters on subkiloparsec scales and forms compact subhalos, in which the majority of Galactic dark matter could reside.

Condensate fraction in neutron matter [PDF]
Physical Review C, 2011 We study the Bose-Einstein condensation of fermionic pairs in the uniform neutron matter by using the concept of the off-diagonal long-range order of the two-body density matrix of the system. We derive explicit formulas for the condensate density $ρ_c$ and the condensate fraction $ρ_c/ρ$ in terms of the scaled pairing energy gap $Δ/ε_F$, where $ε_F ...

Dark Matter, Neutron Stars, and Strange Quark Matter [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2010 We show that self-annihilating neutralino WIMP dark matter accreted onto neutron stars may provide a mechanism to seed compact objects with long-lived lumps of strange quark matter, or strangelets, for WIMP masses above a few GeV. This effect may trigger a conversion of most of the star into a strange star.

Ultra-thin 3D silicon sensors for neutron detection
, 2012 We present a novel neutron detector based on an ultra-thin 3D silicon sensor with a sensitive volume only 10 µm thick. This ultra-thin active volume allows a high gamma-ray rejection, a key requirement in order to discriminate the signal coming from the ...

Simulations of X-ray bursts and superbursts [PDF]
, 2015 Observations of neutron star in binary systems provide powerful constrains on the physics at the surface of neutron stars. During the accretion of matter from the companion star, periodic nuclear explosion are triggered in the outer layers of the neutron

Holographic Quark Matter and Neutron Stars [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2016 We use a top-down holographic model for strongly interacting quark matter to study the properties of neutron stars. When the corresponding Equation of State (EoS) is matched with state-of-the-art results for dense nuclear matter, we consistently observe a first order phase transition at densities between two and seven times the nuclear saturation ...

, 2020 Gravitational waves from coalescing neutron stars encode information about nuclear matter at extreme densities, inaccessible by laboratory experiments. The late inspiral is influenced by the presence of tides, which depend on the neutron star equation of
