Extracting the Central Sound Speed of Neutron Stars through Intrinsic Stellar Structure Scaling with Reduced Equation-of-State Model Dependence
Jian-Hao Shi, Bao-Jun Cai, Yu-Gang Ma
Inferring neutron star (NS) core properties remains sensitive to the assumed equation of state (EOS). Using a nonlinear Walecka model with generalized -meson self-interactions,…
Neutron Skin Effects on Particle Emission in Heavy-Ion Collisions: A Topic Review with Astrophysical and Nuclear Structure Connections
Bao-Jun Cai, De-Qing Fang, Yu-Gang Ma
The neutron skin, defined by the difference between neutron and proton root-mean-square radii, is a characteristic manifestation of isospin asymmetry and an important probe of the…
A New Scaling of Neutron Star Tidal Deformability for Directly Probing the Core Equation of State
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…
An Effective Upper Bound on the Pressure-to-Energy Density Ratio in Neutron Stars
Bao-Jun Cai, Bao-An Li, Yu-Gang Ma
The equation-of-state (EOS) parameter , defined as the ratio of pressure to energy density, encapsulates the fundamental response of matter under extreme com…
Neutron Star Equation of State with Nucleon Short-Range Correlations: A Concise Review and Open Issues
Bao-Jun Cai, Bao-An Li, Yu-Gang Ma
Nucleon short-range correlations (SRCs) and the associated high-momentum tail (HMT) in its momentum distribution represent a universal feature of strongly interacting Fermi…
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…
