Hyperon-Induced Inhomogeneous Pion Condensation and Moat Regimes in Neutron Star Cores

Theo F. Motta, Randall H. V. Pradinett, Gastão Krein

We perform a stability analysis of the homogeneous ground state of nuclear matter against inhomogeneous perturbations of the pion condensate. In ${\hat{I}}^2$-equilibrium, restricting the b…
