Probing Neutron Star Interiors and the Properties of Cold Ultra-dense Matter with the SKAO

Avishek Basu, Vanessa Graber, Marcus E. Lower +19

Matter inside neutron stars is compressed to densities several times greater than nuclear saturation density, while maintaining low temperatures and large asymmetries between neutr…

Rapidly Spinning Massive Pulsars as an Indicator of Quark Deconfinement

Christoph Gärtlein, Violetta Sagun, Oleksii Ivanytskyi +2

We study rotating hybrid stars, with particular emphasis on the effect of spin on the deconfinement phase transition and star properties. Our analysis is based on a hybrid equation…

Differentially rotating neutron stars with dark matter cores

Lorenzo Cipriani, Violetta Sagun, Kalin V. Staykov +2

Dark matter is expected to accumulate inside neutron stars, modifying the structure of isolated stars and influencing both the dynamics of binary mergers and the evolution of the r…

Color-superconducting quarkyonic matter

Christoph Gärtlein, Oleksii Ivanytskyi, Violetta Sagun +1

We explore the role of color superconductivity in quarkyonic matter under the conditions of color and electric neutrality at - and strong equilibrium, as relevant for neutron st…

Numerical Relativity Simulations of Dark Matter Admixed Binary Neutron Stars

Edoardo Giangrandi, Hannes R. Rüter, Nina Kunert +7

Binary neutron star mergers provide insight into strong-field gravity and the properties of ultra-dense nuclear matter. These events offer the potential to search for signatures of…

The Science of the Einstein Telescope

Adrian Abac, Raul Abramo, Simone Albanesi +485

Einstein Telescope (ET) is the European project for a gravitational-wave (GW) observatory of third-generation. In this paper we present a comprehensive discussion of its science ob…

Rapidly spinning dark matter-admixed neutron stars

Lorenzo Cipriani, Edoardo Giangrandi, Violetta Sagun +2

Millisecond pulsars, representing the older neutron star population, are believed to have undergone a prolonged period of dark matter accumulation, resulting in a higher dark matte…

Fastest spinning millisecond pulsars: indicators for quark matter in neutron stars?

Christoph Gärtlein, Violetta Sagun, Oleksii Ivanytskyi +2

We study rotating hybrid stars, with a particular emphasis on the effect of a deconfinement phase transition on their properties at high spin. Our analysis is based on a hybrid equ…

The impact of dark matter on tidal signatures in neutron star mergers with Einstein Telescope

Hauke Koehn, Edoardo Giangrandi, Nina Kunert +3

If dark matter (DM) accumulates inside neutron stars (NS), it changes their internal structure and causes a shift of the tidal deformability from the value predicted by the dense-m…

The impact of asymmetric dark matter on the thermal evolution of nucleonic and hyperonic compact stars

Edoardo Giangrandi, Afonso Ávila, Violetta Sagun +2

We investigate the impact of asymmetric fermionic dark matter (DM) on the thermal evolution of neutron stars (NSs), considering a scenario where DM interacts with baryonic matter (…
