Constraining the equation of state of neutron stars using multimessenger observations

Bhaskar Biswas

Neutron stars are the densest objects known in our visible universe. Properties of matter inside a neutron star are encoded in its equation of state, which has wide-ranging uncerta…

Constraining neutron star properties with a new equation of state insensitive approach

Bhaskar Biswas, Sayak Datta

Instead of parameterizing the pressure-density relation of a neutron star (NS), one can parameterize its macroscopic properties such as mass (), radius (), and dimensionless…

Search for Gravitational Waves Associated with Gamma-Ray Bursts Detected by Fermi and Swift During the LIGO-Virgo Run O3b

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1632

We search for gravitational-wave signals associated with gamma-ray bursts detected by the Fermi and Swift satellites during the second half of the third observing run of Advanced L…

Searches for Gravitational Waves from Known Pulsars at Two Harmonics in the Second and Third LIGO-Virgo Observing Runs

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1694

We present a targeted search for continuous gravitational waves (GWs) from 236 pulsars using data from the third observing run of LIGO and Virgo (O3) combined with data from the se…

Bayesian model-selection of neutron star equation of state using multi-messenger observations

Bhaskar Biswas

Measurement of macroscopic properties of neutron stars, whether in binary or in an isolated system, provides us a key opportunity to place a stringent constraint on its equation of…

Impact of PREX-II and combined Radio/NICER/XMM-Newton's mass-radius measurement of PSRJ0740+6620 on the dense matter equation of state

Bhaskar Biswas

In this paper, we discuss the impact of the following laboratory experiments and astrophysical observation of neutron stars (NSs) on its equation of state (EoS): (a) The new measur…

GW190814: On the properties of the secondary component of the binary

Bhaskar Biswas, Rana Nandi, Prasanta Char +2

We show that the odds of the mass-gap (secondary) object in GW190814 being a neutron star (NS) improve if one allows for a stiff high-density equation of state (EoS) or a large spi…

Towards mitigation of apparent tension between nuclear physics and astrophysical observations by improved modeling of neutron star matter

Bhaskar Biswas, Prasanta Char, Rana Nandi +1

Observations of neutron stars (NSs) by the LIGO-Virgo and NICER collaborations have provided reasonably precise measurements of their various macroscopic properties. In this paper,…
