Improved mass and radius constraints for quiescent neutron stars in ω Cen and NGC 6397
Craig O. Heinke,Haldan N. Cohn,Phyllis M. Lugger,N. A. Webb,Wynn C. G. Ho,Jay Anderson,Sergio Campana,Slavko Bogdanov,Daryl Haggard,Adrienne M. Cool,J. E. Grindlay +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, Chandra and XMM-Newton observations of the globular clusters omega Cen and NGC 6397 were used to measure the spectrum of quiescent neutron stars (NSs), and thus to constrain the allowed ranges of mass and radius for each.
Journal ArticleDOI
A NICER view of PSR J0030+0451: Implications for the dense matter equation of state
Geert Raaijmakers,Thomas E. Riley,Anna L. Watts,S. K. Greif,Sharon M. Morsink,Kai Hebeler,Achim Schwenk,Tanja Hinderer,Samaya Nissanke,Sebastien Guillot,Zaven Arzoumanian,Slavko Bogdanov,D. Chakrabarty K. C. Gendreau,Wynn C. G. Ho,James M. Lattimer,Renee M. Ludlam,M. T. Wolff +16 more
TL;DR: In this article, the mass and radius of the millisecond pulsar PSR J0030+0451 have been inferred via pulse-profile modeling of X-ray data obtained by NASA's NICER mission.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atmospheres and spectra of strongly magnetized neutron stars
Wynn C. G. Ho,Dong Lai +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, an atmosphere model for strongly magnetized neutron stars with surface fields B � 10 12 10 15 G and effective temperatures Teff � 10 6 10 7 K was constructed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution of a buried magnetic field in the central compact object neutron stars
TL;DR: In this article, a model of a buried magnetic field was proposed to explain the youth and low observed magnetic field of the central compact objects, which are a newly emerging class of young neutron stars near the center of supernova remnants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Constraints on the dense matter equation of state and neutron star properties from NICER's mass-radius estimate of PSR J0740+6620 and multimessenger observations

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors study the impact of the mass and radius of a 1.4 solar mass neutron star on the EOS of a binary binary neutron star, and show that the new NICER results provide tight constraints for the pressure of neutron star matter at around twice saturation density, which shows the power of these observations to constrain dense matter interactions at intermediate densities.
