As above, so below: assessing extremeness of the neutron-star equation of state based on the unstable branch
Tyler Gorda, Oleg Komoltsev, Aleksi Kurkela +1
Microscopic models of neutron-star matter have been widely used in astrophysical applications. The focus of attention has been on densities up to the maximal densities reached in s…
First-order phase transitions in the cores of neutron stars
Oleg Komoltsev
I explore various scenarios for the phase transition within neutron-star matter. I do so by generating large model-agnostic ensemble using Gaussian processes, both with and without…
Equation of state at neutron-star densities and beyond from perturbative QCD
Oleg Komoltsev, Rahul Somasundaram, Tyler Gorda +3
We explore the consequences of imposing robust thermodynamic constraints arising from perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) when inferring the dense-matter equation-of-state (E…
QCD in the cores of neutron stars
Oleg Komoltsev
I discuss why state-of-the art perturbative QCD calculations of the equation of state at large chemical potential that are reliable at asymptotically high densities constrain the s…
Ab-initio QCD calculations impact the inference of the neutron-star-matter equation of state
Tyler Gorda, Oleg Komoltsev, Aleksi Kurkela
We demonstrate that ab-initio calculations in QCD at high densities offer significant and nontrivial information about the equation of state of matter in the cores of neutron stars…
How perturbative QCD constrains the Equation of State at Neutron-Star densities
Oleg Komoltsev, Aleksi Kurkela
We demonstrate in a general and analytic way how high-density information about the equation of state (EoS) of strongly interacting matter obtained using perturbative Quantum Chrom…
