An Undergraduate Approach to the Quantum Hadrodynamics and the Physics of Neutron Stars Part II: Neutron Stars' Exotic Content

Luiz L. Lopes

In this second part, I discuss how to introduce and the role played by non-atomic degrees of freedom in neutron stars' core using the formalism developed in Part I.

An Undergraduate Approach to the Quantum Hadrodynamics and the Physics of Neutron Stars

Luiz L. Lopes

In this tutorial, I discuss how to model a neutron star from the Quantum Hadrodynamics microscopic approach. After a brief discussion about hydrostatic equilibrium, I discuss the r…

Role of the symmetry energy slope in neutron stars: exploring the model-dependency

Luiz L. Lopes

Using six different parametrizations of the quantum hadrodynamics (one of which is original), I study how different values of the symmetry energy slope ( affect some microscopi…

Decoding rotating neutron stars: Role of the symmetry energy slope

Luiz L. Lopes

In December 2023, the Fermi LAT Catalog announced the discovery of 33 new millisecond pulsars. Motivated by that, in this work, I study how different values of the symmetry energy…

A Bayesian study of quark models in view of recent astrophysical constraints

Franciele M. da Silva, Adamu Issifu, Luiz L. Lopes +2

In this work, we perform a comparative analysis between the density-dependent quark model and the vector MIT bag model using Bayesian analysis. We use the equations of state genera…

Gravitational Wave Signatures of Highly Magnetized Neutron Stars

Cesar V. Flores, Luiz L. Lopes, Luis B. Castro +1

Motivated by the recent gravitational wave detection by the LIGO-VIRGO observatories, we study the Love number and dimensionless tidal polarizability of highly magnetized stars. We…

Hyperon threshold and stellar radii

Luiz L. Lopes, Debora P. Menezes

We study how the hyperon threshold influences the radius of the canonical neutron star in the light of the measurements found in the recent literature. We show t…

Quark matter under strong magnetic fields

Debora P. Menezes, Luiz L. Lopes

We revisit three of the mathematical formalisms used to describe magnetized quark matter in compact objects within the MIT and the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio models and then compare their…
