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.

A Neutron Star Is Born [PDF]

open access: yesUniverse, 2021
A neutron star was first detected as a pulsar in 1967. It is one of the most mysterious compact objects in the universe, with a radius of the order of 10 km and masses that can reach two solar masses. In fact, neutron stars are star remnants, a kind of stellar zombie (they die, but do not disappear).

STRANGENESS IN NEUTRON STARS [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Modern Physics D, 2007
It is generally agreed on that the tremendous densities reached in the centers of neutron stars provide a high-pressure environment in which several intriguing particles processes may compete with each other. These range from the generation of hyperons to quark deconfinement to the formation of kaon condensates and H-matter.

Hyperon-Mixed Neutron Star Matter and Neutron Stars [PDF]

open access: yesProgress of Theoretical Physics, 2002
Effective Σ − n and Σ − Σ − interactions are derived fromthe G-matrix calculations for {n+Σ − } matter and employed in the investigation of hyperon mixing in neutron star matter. The threshold densities ρt(Y ) at which hyperons start to appear are between 2ρ0 and 3ρ0 (where ρ0 is the normal nuclear density) for both Λ and Σ − , and their fractions ...

The Physics of Neutron Stars [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2004
Neutron stars are some of the densest manifestations of massive objects in the universe. They are ideal astrophysical laboratories for testing theories of dense matter physics and provide connections among nuclear physics, particle physics, and astrophysics. Neutron stars may exhibit conditions and phenomena not observed elsewhere, such as

Neutron stars for undergraduates [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physics, 2004
The calculation of the structure of white dwarf and neutron stars is a suitable topic for an undergraduate thesis or an advanced special topics or independent study course. The subject is rich in many different areas of physics, ranging from thermodynamics to quantum statistics to nuclear physics to special and general relativity.

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.
