Joint Mass-Radius and Magnetic-Geometry Inference of PSR J0740+6620

Chun Huang, Tuomo Salmi, Alexander Y. Chen

X-ray pulse-profile modeling can measure neutron-star radii, but its physical interpretation remains limited by the largely phenomenological description of the surface hotspots. He…

Combining the Mass--Radius Posteriors of J0030+0451 Allowing for Unknown Model Systematics

Ryan O'Connor, Chun Huang, Alexander Y. Chen

The NASA Neutron star Interior Composition Explorer (\emph{NICER}) mission measures the X-ray pulse profiles of select millisecond pulsars and uses sophisticated pulse profile mode…

Physics motivated models of pulsar X-ray hotspots: off-center dipole configurations

Chun Huang, Alexander Y. Chen

Recently, it was proposed that an off-center dipole magnetic configuration, together with a non-trivial temperature profile, may be the best model to explain the X-ray light curve…

CompactObject: An open-source Python package for full-scope neutron star equation of state inference

Chun Huang, Tuhin Malik, João Cartaxo +14

The CompactObject package is an open-source software framework developed to constrain the neutron star equation of state (EOS) through Bayesian statistical inference. It integrates…

The Milky Way Tomography with SDSS: II. Stellar Metallicity

Zeljko Ivezic, Branimir Sesar, Mario Juric +50

Using effective temperature and metallicity derived from SDSS spectra for ~60,000 F and G type main sequence stars (0.2<g-r<0.6), we develop polynomial models for estimating these…
