Revisiting the thermal relaxation of neutron stars

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors revisited the thermal relaxation process for neutron stars and showed that stars with large masses exhibit an abnormally late relaxation time, characterized by a second drop of its surface temperature taking place a later ages.

Effects of δ Meson on Thermal Protoneutron Star Matter

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of the δ meson on thermal protoneutron star matter with hyperons at the same temperature were investigated in the framework of relativistic mean field theory.

Momentum dependent mean-fields of (anti)hyperons

TL;DR: In this paper, the in-medium properties of hyperons and anti-hyperons were investigated in the framework of the Non-Linear Derivative (NLD) model, which is based on the simplicity of the well-established Relativistic Mean-Field (RMF) approximation.

Compact stars: Neutron stars or quark stars or hybrid stars?

Erlend Østgaard
- 01 Jul 1994 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors constructed various neutron star equations of state from energy calculations of neutron matter, together with the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equations, and calculated quantities such as pressure, mass density, mass energy density, total mass, radius, and moment of inertia for neutron stars.

Finite Size Effects in the Deconfinement Transition

TL;DR: In this article, the deconfinement phase transition from a gas of Hadrons to a hot plasma of deconfined quarks and gluons was studied in ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions.

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.

Static Solutions of Einstein's Field Equations for Spheres of Fluid

TL;DR: In this article, a method is developed for treating Einstein's field equations, applied to static spheres of fluid, in such a manner as to provide explicit solutions in terms of known analytic functions.

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.
