The mass distribution of Galactic double neutron stars
, 2019 The conventional wisdom, dating back to 2012, is that the mass distribution of Galactic double neutron stars is well-fit by a Gaussian distribution with a mean of $1.33 M_\odot$ and a width of $0.09 M_\odot$.

Spin and magnetism in old neutron stars [PDF]
, 2000 The thermal, spin and magnetic evolution of neutron stars in the old low mass binaries is first explored. Recycled to very short periods via accretion torques, the neutron stars lose their magnetism progressively.

Experimental and Theoretical Confirmation of Covalent Bonding in α‐Pu
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.From a combination of Reverse Monte Carlo dynamic rigid body fitting to the pair distribution functional and novel density functional approaches, the existence of covalent bonding is confirmed in α‐plutonium alongside other bonding types (i.e. mixed bonding schemes).

Fast Neutron Detector Based on Hybrid 2D Perovskite Thin Films
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This work presents the direct detection of fast neutrons using flexible hybrid 2D perovskite (PEA2PbBr4) thin‐film detectors. Thanks to their high low‐Z elements content and good charge transport, these materials enable efficient neutron detection. The thin film configuration allowed the operation at low voltage, and offer scalability, flexibility, and

Gravitational wave signatures of highly magnetized neutron stars
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2020 Motivated by the recent gravitational wave detection by the LIGO–VIRGO observatories, we study the Love number and dimensionless tidal polarizability of highly magnetized stars.

Compact Objects in Alternative Gravities
Universe, 2022 We address neutron stars and black holes in alternative gravities, after recalling their basic properties in General Relativity. Among the plethora of interesting alternative gravities we here focus on an interesting set of scalar-tensor theories.

RXJ1856.5-3754 and RXJ0720.4-3125 are P-Stars
, 2004 P-stars are a new class of compact stars made of up and down quarks in $\beta$-equilibrium with electrons in a chromomagnetic condensate. P-stars are able to account for compact stars with $R \lesssim 6 Km$, as well as stars comparable to canonical ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This work addresses the challenge of current–voltage asymmetry in scalable laminated semitransparent organic photovoltaics (OPVs) for indoor applications. Vertical stratification of materials is shown to create an energy barrier, leading to performance differences under different illumination directions.

Bound Debris Expulsion from Neutron Star Merger Remnants
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Many studies have found that neutron star mergers leave a fraction of the stars’ mass in bound orbits surrounding the resulting massive neutron star or black hole. This mass is a site of r -process nucleosynthesis and can generate a wind that contributes
