TL;DR: In this article, the uncertainties in neutron star radii and crust properties due to our limited knowledge of the equation of state are quantitatively analyzed, and a large set of unified equations of state for purely nucleonic matter is obtained based on twentyfour Skyrme interactions and nine relativistic mean field nuclear parametrizations.

TL;DR: In this paper, an extensive parameter study within relativistic mean field models was performed to obtain high mass neutron stars with a substantial amount of hyperons, radii of 12-13 km for the canonical mass of, and spinodal instability at the onset of the hyperons.

TL;DR: In this article, the standard variational derivation of stellar matter structure in the Wigner-Seitz approximation is generalized to the finite temperature situation where a wide distribution of different nuclear species can coexist in the same density and proton fraction condition, possibly out of $\beta$-equilibrium.

TL;DR: In this article, a high-granularity 4π charged particle multi-detector was used to detect α-particle condensation in 40Ca + 12C at 25 MeV/nucleon.

TL;DR: In this paper, an extensive parameter study within relativistic mean field models was performed to investigate the appearance of hyperons in the central part of neutron stars, and the results depend strongly on the interaction in the hyperon-hyperon channels, on which only very little information is available from terrestrial experiments up to now.
