A light strange star in the remnant HESS J1731-347: minimal consistency checks
J. E. Horvath, L. S. Rocha, L. M. de Sá +5
Context: Recently, Doroshenko and collaborators reported a very low-mass compact star, a Central Compact Object named XMMU J173203.3-344518 inside the supernova remnant HESS J1731-…
An Overview of Compact Star Populations and Some of Its Open Problems
L. M. de Sá, A. Bernardo, R. R. A. Bachega +3
The study of compact object populations has come a long way since the determination of the mass of the Hulse-Taylor pulsar, and we now count on more than 150 known Galactic neutron…
The maximum mass of neutron stars may be higher than expected: an inference from binary systems
L. S. Rocha, R. R. A. Bachega, J. E. Horvath +1
We have analyzed in this work the updated sample of neutron star masses derived from the study of a variety of 96 binary systems containing at least one neutron star using Bayesian…
Redback/Black Widow Systems as progenitors of the highest neutron star masses and low-mass Black Holes
J. E. Horvath, A. Bernardo, L. S. Rocha +3
We suggest in this note that "spider" systems are the naturally expected progenitors of the highest neutron star masses, and possibly low-mass black holes, based on their long-term…
