Innermost stable circular orbits of neutron stars in dilatonic-Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet theory

arXiv:1812.02686 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.99.024041

Abstract

The innermost stable circular orbits (ISCOs) around rapidly rotating neutron stars are studied in dilatonic Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet theory. Universal relations for properly scaled ISCO properties are extended from General Relativity to dilatonic Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet theory and additional relations are obtained.
