Role of fluctuations on the pairing properties of nuclei in the random spacing model
M. A. A. Mamun, C. Constantinou, M. Prakash
The influence of thermal fluctuations on fermion pairing is investigated using a semiclassical treatment of fluctuations. When the average pairing gaps along with those differing b…
Quark matter and the astrophysics of neutron stars
M Prakash
Some of the means through which the possible presence of nearly deconfined quarks in neutron stars can be detected by astrophysical observations of neutron stars from their birth t…
Evolution of a Neutron Star From its Birth to Old Age
M. Prakash, J. M. Lattimer, J. A. Pons +2
The main stages in the evolution of a neutron star, from its birth as a proto-neutron star, to its old age as a cold, catalyzed configuration, are described. A proto-neutron star i…
Neutrino Opacities at High Density and the Protoneutron Star Evolution
S. Reddy, J. Pons, M. Prakash +1
The early evolution of a protoneutron star depends both on the equation of state and neutrino interactions at high density. We identify the important sources of neutrino opacity an…
Neutrinos from Protoneutron Stars
S. Reddy, J. Pons, M. Prakash +1
We study the diffusive transport of neutrinos in a newly born neutron star to explore its sensitivity to dense matter properties. Energy and lepton number which are trapped during…
Strangeness and Metastable Neutron Stars: What Might have Happened to SN1987A
Paul J. Ellis, James M. Lattimer, M. Prakash
Immediately after they are born, neutron stars are characterized by an entropy per baryon of order unity and by the presence of trapped neutrinos. If the only hadrons in the star a…
