Interior matter estimates of the X-ray pulsar in SAX J1808.4-3658 from mass-radius and rotation measurements
Nana Pan, Li Zhang, Xiaoping Zheng
To constrain the equation of state of super-nuclear density matter and probe the interior composition of the X-ray pulsar in SAX J1808.4-3658. In our estimation, we consider both i…
1122 Hz rotation of XTE J1739-285 as a probe of quark matter in the interior of the neutron star
Xiaoping Zheng, Nana Pan, Li Zhang
The recent discovery of burst oscillation at 1122Hz in the X-ray transient XTE J1739-285 supports the suggestion that it contains a submillisecond pulsar. In our estimations of the…
Deconfinement Phase Transition Heating and Thermal Evolution of Neutron Stars
Miao Kang, Nana Pan, Xiaodong Wang
The deconfinement phase transition will lead to the release of latent heat during spins down of neutron stars if the transition is the first-order one.We have investigated the ther…
Probe into the interior of compact stars
Nana Pan, Miao Kang
The interior of neutron stars contains nuclear matter at very high density for numerous subatomic particles compete with each other. Therefore, confirming the components and proper…
