Structure of Quark Stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper gives an brief overview of the structure of hypothetical strange quarks stars (quark stars, for short), which are made of absolutely stable 3-flavor strange quark matter.

What can neutron stars reveal about the equation of state of dense matter? [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ 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.

Isolated neutron stars

open access: yes, 2006
This is a review of X-ray emission from all types of isolated neutron stars, with an emphasis on rotation-powered pulsars. Topics include magnetospheric and thermal emission, as well as pulsar wind nebulae.

The origin of the first neutron star – neutron star merger [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2018
The first neutron star-neutron star (NS-NS) merger was discovered on August 17, 2017 through gravitational waves (GW170817) and followed with electromagnetic observations. This merger was detected in an old elliptical galaxy with no recent star formation. We perform a suite of numerical calculations to understand the formation mechanism of this merger.

Nucleosynthesis in low-mass stars: Shedding light on the cosmic origin of heavy elements [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences
Low-mass, low-metallicity stars while evolving through the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) phase undergo significant nucleosynthesis producing the majority of slow (s-) and intermedite (i-) neutron capture elements.

R-modes in accreting and young neutron stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Recent work has raised the exciting possibility that r-mode pulsations (Rossby waves) in rotating neutron star cores may be strong gravitational wave sources.

The Magnetospheres of (Accreting) Neutron Stars

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2014
I give an overview of the most important observational tools to study the magnetospheres of accreting neutron stars, with a focus on accreting neutron stars in high mass X-ray binary systems.

Herschel and Spitzer observations of slowly rotating, nearby isolated neutron stars

open access: yes, 2014
Supernova fallback disks around neutron stars have been discussed to influence the evolution of the diverse neutron star populations. Slowly rotating neutron stars are most promising to find such disks.

Neutron Star Matter and Neutron Star Models

open access: yesZeitschrift für Naturforschung A, 1974
Various methods to study the ground state of neutron star matter are compared and the corresponding neutron star models are contrasted with each other. In the low density region ρ < 1014gr cm-3 the nuclear gas is treated here by means of a Thomas Fermi method and the nuclei are described by the droplet model of Myers and Swiatecki.
