What Is the Nature of the HESS J1731-347 Compact Object?
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Once further confirmed in future analyses, the radius and mass measurement of HESS J1731-347 with $M={0.77}_{-0.17}^{+0.20}\,{M}_{\odot }$ and $R={10.4}_{-0.78}^{+0.86}\,\mathrm{km}$ will be among the lightest and smallest compact objects ever detected ...

Letter to Nature: An ultra-relativistic outflow from a neutron star accreting gas from a companion. [PDF]
, 2004 Collimated relativistic outflows—also known as jets—are amongst the most energetic phenomena in the Universe. They are associated with supermassive black holes in distant active galactic nuclei1, accreting stellar-mass black holes and neutron stars in ...

PROPERTIES OF NEUTRON STARS [PDF]
Compact Stars, 2004 I review attempts made to determine the properties of neutron stars. I focus on constraints on the maximum mass that a neutron star can have, and on attempts to measure neutron-star radii. So far, there appears to be only one neutron star for which there is strong evidence that its mass is above the canonical 1.4 Msun, viz., Vela X-1, for which a mass ...

What can neutron stars reveal about the equation of state of dense matter? [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2020 Neutron stars are astrophysical objects of extremes, reaching the highest densities we can observe in the cosmos, and probing matter under conditions that cannot be recreated in terrestrial experiments.

Gravitoastronomy with neutron stars [PDF]
, 2004 Recent advances in gravitational wave detectors mean that we can start to make astrophysically important statements about the physics of neutron stars based on observed upper limits to their gravitational luminosity.

Holographic neutron stars [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2010 We construct in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence degenerate composite operators in the conformal field theory that are holographically dual to degenerate stars in anti de Sitter space. We calculate the effect of the gravitational back-reaction using the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equations, and determine the "Chandrasekhar limit" beyond which ...

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

Compact objects in active galactic nuclei and X-ray binaries [PDF]
, 2007 In this thesis I study the inner-most regions of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) using the reverberation mapping technique, and neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries in quiescence using X-ray observations. Using the 13-year optical monitoring data for the

A novel solution to the hyperon-puzzle in neutron stars [PDF]
EPJ Web of ConferencesHyperons are baryons with strangeness content and heavier than nucleons. Due to the high densities in the neutron star interior, they are energetically allowed to appear.
