GW190814 as a massive rapidly rotating neutron star with exotic degrees of freedom

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the possibility of producing massive neutron stars from a few different equation of state models that contain exotic degrees of freedom, such as hyperons and quarks.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermal Evolution of Compact Stars

TL;DR: In this paper, a collection of modern field-theoretical equations of state is applied to the investigation of cooling properties of compact stars, which include neutron stars as well as hypothetical strange-matter stars, made up of absolutely stable 3-flavor strange-quark matter.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Differential Rotation on the Maximum Mass of Neutron Stars: Realistic Nuclear Equations of State

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors survey several cold nuclear equations of state (EOSs) and numerically construct models of differentially rotating neutron stars in general relativity, tabulating maximum allowed masses as a function of the degree of differential rotation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Equation of state sensitivities when inferring neutron star and dense matter properties

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors use Bayesian inference to explore and contrast the constraints that would result from different choices for the equation of state parametrization; comparing the well-established piecewise polytropic parameterization to one based on physically motivated assumptions for the speed of sound in dense matter.

Equation of state for nucleonic and hyperonic neutron stars with mass and radius constraints

TL;DR: In this article, a new equation of state for the nucleonic and hyperonic inner core of neutron stars is obtained from a new parametrization of the FSU2 relativistic mean field functional that satisfies these latest astrophysical constraints and reproduces the properties of nuclear matter and finite nuclei while fulfilling the restrictions on high-density matter deduced from heavy-ion collisions.
