Comparison of equation of state models with different cluster dissolution mechanisms

Helena Pais, Stefan Typel

The appearance of nuclear clusters in stellar matter at densities below nuclear saturation is an important feature in the modeling of the equation of state for astrophysical applic…

Strong correlations of neutron star radii with the slopes of nuclear matter incompressibility and symmetry energy at saturation

N. Alam, B. K. Agrawal, M. Fortin +4

We examine the correlations of neutron star radii with the nuclear matter incompressibility, symmetry energy, and their slopes, which are the key parameters of the equation of stat…

The Vlasov formalism for extended relativistic mean field models: the crust-core transition and the stellar matter equation of state

Helena Pais, Constança Providência

The Vlasov formalism is extended to relativistic mean-field hadron models with non-linear terms up to fourth order and applied to the calculation of the crust-core transition densi…

Correlation of the neutron star crust-core properties with the slope of the symmetry energy and the lead skin thickness

H. Pais, A. Sulaksono, B. K. Agrawal +1

The correlations of the crust-core transition density and pressure in neutron stars with the slope of the symmetry energy and the neutron skin thickness are investigated, using dif…

Is the magnetic field making the inner crust of neutron stars more heterogeneous?

Jianjun Fang, Sidney Avancini, Helena Pais +1

We study the effect of strong magnetic fields, of the order of G, on the extension of the crust of magnetized neutron stars. The dynamical instability region of n…

Neutron stars: from the inner crust to the core with the (Extended) Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model

Helena Pais, Débora P. Menezes, Constança Providência

Nucleonic matter is described within a su(2) extended Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. Several parametrizations with different nuclear matter saturation properties are proposed. At subsat…
