Simulations of X-ray bursts and superbursts [PDF]
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

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

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

Thin accretion discs around neutron and quark stars [PDF]
The possibility of observationally discriminating between various types of neutron stars, described by different equations of state of the nuclear matter, as well as differentiating neutron stars from other types of exotic objects, for example, quark ...

The fundamental nature of dark matter is entirely unknown. A compelling candidate is Twin Higgs mirror matter, invisible hidden-sector cousins of the Standard Model particles and forces. This predicts mirror neutron stars made entirely of mirror nuclear matter. We find their structure using realistic equations of state, robustly modified based on first-

A Whirl of Neutron Stars [PDF]
A quackery of astroquarks takes a close look at neutron stars thanks to observations from the NICER observatory on the International Space Station and some clever scientific modeling that reveals these rapidly spinning stellar remnants are not too soft ...

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

Recent progress in the determination of both masses and radii of neutron stars is starting to place stringent constraints on the dense matter equation of state. In particular, new theoretical developments together with improved statistical tools seem to favor stellar radii that are significantly smaller than those predicted by models using purely ...
