Phase transitions in a saturating chiral theory of nuclear matter

TL;DR: In this paper, a relativistically covariant saturating chiral field theory of nuclear matter is developed in the mean field approximation, and some of the properties of the theory are studied.

The role of the form factor and short-range correlation in the relativistic Hartree-Fock model for nuclear matter

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of the form factor and short-range correlation in nuclear matter was studied within the relativistic Hartree-Fock approximation, and the form factors in the meson-nucleon coupling vertices were introduced to take into account the finite-size effect of the nucleon.

On Massive neutron cores

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the gravitational equilibrium of masses of neutrons, using the equation of state for a cold Fermi gas, and general relativity, and showed that for masses under 1/3, there are no static equilibrium solutions.

On Continued Gravitational Contraction

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors study the solutions of the gravitational field equations which describe the contraction of a heavy star, and give general and qualitative arguments on the behavior of the metrical tensor as the contraction progresses.
