Filling fractions for the formation of nuclear pasta in neutron stars: semiclassical vs liquid-drop predictions
Nikolai N. Shchechilin, Nicolas Chamel, Andrey I. Chugunov
Historically, a sequence of nuclear pasta shapes was predicted to appear in the deepest region of the inner crust of a neutron star within the compressible liquid-drop picture, whe…
Unified equations of state for cold nonaccreting neutron stars with Brussels-Montreal functionals. V. Improved parametrization of the nucleon density distributions
N. N. Shchechilin, N. Chamel, J. M. Pearson +2
We previously studied the inner crust and the pasta mantle of a neutron star within the 4th-order extended Thomas-Fermi (ETF) approach with consistent proton shell corrections adde…
Unified equations of state for cold non-accreting neutron stars with Brussels-Montreal functionals. IV. Role of the symmetry energy in pasta phases
N. N. Shchechilin, N. Chamel, J. M. Pearson
Our previous investigation of neutron-star crusts, based on the functional BSk24, led to a substantial reduction of the pasta mantle when Strutinsky integral and pairing correction…
