Quark Deconfinement in Rotating Neutron Stars

open access: yesUniverse, 2017
In this paper, we use a three flavor non-local Nambu–Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model, an improved effective model of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) at low energies, to investigate the existence of deconfined quarks in the cores of neutron stars.

Detectability of Continuous Gravitational Waves from Magnetically Deformed Neutron Stars

open access: yesGalaxies, 2021
Neutron stars are known to contain extremely powerful magnetic fields. Their effect is to deform the shape of the star, leading to the potential emission of continuous gravitational waves.

Constraints on physics of neutron stars from X-ray observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
I summarize some constraints on the physics of neutron stars arising from X-ray observations of the surfaces of neutron stars, focusing on using models of low-magnetic-field neutron star atmospheres to interpret their X-ray spectra.

Neutron stars in the laboratory [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Modern Physics D, 2017
Neutron stars are astrophysical laboratories of many extremes of physics. Their rich phenomenology provides insights into the state and composition of matter at densities which cannot be reached in terrestrial experiments. Since the core of a mature neutron star is expected to be dominated by superfluid and superconducting components, observations ...

Nucleonic Direct Urca Processes and Cooling of the Massive Neutron Star by Antikaon Condensations

open access: yesAdvances in Astronomy, 2020
Nucleonic direct Urca processes and cooling of the massive neutron stars are studied by considering antikaon condensations. Calculations are performed in the relativistic mean field and isothermal interior approximations.

Rapidly rotating neutron stars in $$f(R,T)=R+2 \lambda T$$ f ( R , T ) = R + 2 λ T gravity

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023
In this work, we study the influence of f(R, T) gravity on rapidly rotating neutron stars. First we discuss the main aspects of this modified theory of gravity where the gravitational Lagrangian is an arbitrary function of the Ricci scalar R and of the ...

The equilibrium configuration of rotating neutron stars ‎ [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Physics Research, 2022
Using the density-dependent equation of states to describe the matter of rotating neutron stars, we construct equilibrium configurations of rotating neutron stars. The interaction between baryons is described by exchanging the scalar and vector mesons in

How to identify a Strange Star [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Contrary to young neutron stars, young strange stars are not subject to the r-mode instability which slows rapidly rotating, hot neutron stars to rotation periods near 10 ms via gravitational wave emission.

Neutron skins and neutron stars [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2013
The neutron-skin thickness of heavy nuclei provides a fundamental link to the equation of state of neutron-rich matter, and hence to the properties of neutron stars. The Lead Radius Experiment ("PREX") at Jefferson Laboratory has recently provided the first model-independence evidence on the existence of a neutron-rich skin in 208Pb.

The Masses of Neutron Stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present in this article an overview of the problem of neutron star masses. After a brief appraisal of the methods employed to determine the masses of neutron stars in binary systems, the existing sample of measured masses is presented, with a highlight on some very well-determined cases.
