Neutron stars more compact than black holes in quasi-topological gravity: Equilibrium configurations and radial stability

Liang Liang, Zhe Luo, Shoulong Li +1

Within general relativity, black holes are widely regarded as the ultimate benchmark for compactness in the Universe. Recently, however, neutron star models have been constructed i…

Self-consistent neutron stars in a class of massive vector-tensor gravity

Zhe Luo, Shoulong Li, Hongwei Yu

Einstein-bumblebee gravity, as a class of massive non-minimally coupled vector-tensor theories, provides a useful framework for constraining Lorentz symmetry breaking through astro…

Radial oscillations of neutron stars in Starobinsky gravity and its Gauss-Bonnet extension

Ziyi Li, Zhong-Xi Yu, Zhe Luo +2

Starobinsky gravity, as one of the simplest and best-behaved higher-curvature gravity theories, has been extensively studied in the context of neutron stars over the past few decad…

Neutron stars in Gauss-Bonnet extended Starobinsky gravity

Zhonghai Liu, Ziyi Li, Liang Liang +2

Recently, a class of Gauss-Bonnet extended Starobinsky gravity was proposed, allowing black holes to carry ghost-free massive scalar hair for the first time without requiring addit…

NANOGrav hints for first-order confinement-deconfinement phase transition in different QCD-matter scenarios

Zu-Cheng Chen, Shou-Long Li, Puxun Wu +1

Recent observations from several pulsar timing array (PTA) collaborations have unveiled compelling evidence for a stochastic signal in the nanohertz band. This signal aligns remark…

Neutron stars more compact than black holes as a probe of strong-field gravity

Shoulong Li, H. Lü, Yong Gao +3

Probing gravity in its strongest regime is a central goal of modern physics, as the nature of the most compact objects reflects fundamental aspects of Einstein's theory of general…
