Quantifying the Information Gain from Future High-Precision Radius Measurements for Identifying Twin Neutron Stars

Bao-An Li, Xavier Grundler

Twin neutron stars (NSs), characterized by identical gravitational masses but different radii, are among the most promising astrophysical signatures of a strong first-order hadron-…

An Effective Upper Bound on the Pressure-to-Energy Density Ratio in Neutron Stars

Bao-Jun Cai, Bao-An Li, Yu-Gang Ma

The equation-of-state (EOS) parameter , defined as the ratio of pressure to energy density, encapsulates the fundamental response of matter under extreme com…

Neutron Star Equation of State with Nucleon Short-Range Correlations: A Concise Review and Open Issues

Bao-Jun Cai, Bao-An Li, Yu-Gang Ma

Nucleon short-range correlations (SRCs) and the associated high-momentum tail (HMT) in its momentum distribution represent a universal feature of strongly interacting Fermi…

Illuminating dark matter admixed in neutron stars with simultaneous mass-radius constraints

Nai-Bo Zhang, Bao-An Li, Jia-Yu Zhang +2

We investigate how simultaneous mass and radius measurements of massive neutron stars (NSs) can help constrain properties of dark matter (DM) possibly admixed in them. Within a fer…
