A New Scaling of Neutron Star Tidal Deformability for Directly Probing the Central Equation of State Parameter
Jian-Hao Shi, Bao-Jun Cai, Bao-An Li +1
The dimensionless tidal deformability, , of neutron stars (NSs), inferred from gravitational-wave (GW) observations, has thus far been used primarily to constrain the pressure o…
Is The Trace Anomaly at its Minimum Value at Neutron Star Centers?
Bao-Jun Cai, Bao-An Li, Yu-Gang Ma
While the equation of state (EOS) of neutron star (NS) matter has been extensively studied, the EOS-parameter or equivalently the dimensionless…
Revisiting the Possibility of a Sharp Phase Transition in Cold Neutron Stars
Bao-Jun Cai, Bao-An Li, Yu-Gang Ma
First-order phase transitions (FOPTs) in cold neutron stars (NSs) have been extensively studied and have provided valuable insights into the behavior of the densest matter visible…
Novel Scalings of Neutron Star Properties from Analyzing Dimensionless Tolman--Oppenheimer--Volkoff Equations
Bao-Jun Cai, Bao-An Li
The TOV equations govern the radial evolution of pressure and energy density in static neutron stars (NSs) in hydrodynamical equilibrium. Using the reduced pressure and energy dens…
New Insights into Supradense Matter from Dissecting Scaled Stellar Structure Equations
Bao-Jun Cai, Bao-An Li
The strong-field gravity in General Relativity (GR) realized in neutron stars (NSs) renders the Equation of State (EOS) of supradense neutron star (NS) matter to b…
Unraveling Trace Anomaly of Supradense Matter via Neutron Star Compactness Scaling
Bao-Jun Cai, Bao-An Li
The trace anomaly quantifies the possibly broken conformal symmetry in supradense matter under pressure at energy density . Pertu…
