Strongly interacting matter exhibits deconfined behavior in massive neutron stars. [PDF]
Neutron-star cores contain matter at the highest densities in our Universe. This highly compressed matter may undergo a phase transition where nuclear matter melts into deconfined quark matter, liberating its constituent quarks and gluons.

QCD equations of state and speed of sound in neutron stars [PDF]
Neutron stars are cosmic laboratories to study dense matter in quantum chromodynamics (QCD). The observable mass-radius relations of neutron stars are determined by QCD equations of state and can reflect the properties of QCD phase transitions.

Neutron-mirror neutron mixing and neutron stars [PDF]
The oscillation of neutron n into mirror neutron $$n'$$ n ′ , its mass degenerate partner from dark mirror sector, can gradually transform the neutron stars into the mixed stars consisting in part of mirror dark matter.

Tidal Deformabilities and Radii of Neutron Stars from the Observation of GW170817 [PDF]
We use gravitational-wave observations of the binary neutron star merger GW170817 to explore the tidal deformabilities and radii of neutron stars.

Using Gravitational-wave Observations and Quasi-universal Relations to Constrain the Maximum Mass of Neutron Stars [PDF]
Combining the GW observations of merging systems of binary neutron stars and quasi-universal relations, we set constraints on the maximum mass that can be attained by nonrotating stellar models of neutron stars.

Abundances of Neutron-capture Elements in 62 Stars in the Globular Cluster Messier 15 [PDF]
M15 is a globular cluster with a known spread in neutron-capture elements. This paper presents abundances of neutron-capture elements for 62 stars in M15.

On the Sound Speed in Neutron Stars [PDF]
Determining the sound speed c s in compact stars is an important open question with numerous implications on the behavior of matter at large densities and hence on gravitational-wave emission from neutron stars.

Cooling of neutron stars with quark-hadron continuity [PDF]
Neutron stars are high-density objects formed by the gravitational collapse of massive stars, and the whole star can be likened to a giant nucleus. The interior of a neutron star is considered to contain exotic particles and states which do not appear in

Can we distinguish quark stars from neutron stars with measurements of global properties? [PDF]
The phase state of the dense stellar matter is an exciting topic in the area of nuclear astrophysics. It may be probed by observed properties of neutron stars from, for example, the currently operating satellites (NICER, Neutron star Interior Composition

Dark matter admixed neutron stars [PDF]
Neutron stars could contain a mixture of ordinary nuclear matter and dark matter, such that dark matter could influence observable properties of the star, such as its mass and radius.
