Bayesian Inference of fine-features of dense matter EOS from future high-precision data of neutron star radii

Bao-An Li, Xavier Grundler, Wen-Jie Xie +1

Future high-precision X-ray and gravitational wave observatories are expected to measure the radii of neutron stars (NSs) with an accuracy better than about 0.1 km. However, it rem…

Bayesian Inference of Hybrid Star Properties from Future High-Precision Measurements of Their Radii

Bao-An Li, Xavier Grundler, Wen-Jie Xie +1

Future high-precision X-ray and gravitational-wave observations of neutron stars (NSs) are expected to constrain NS radii with uncertainties as small as ~km. Such unp…

Illuminating dark matter admixed in neutron stars with simultaneous mass-radius constraints

Nai-Bo Zhang, Bao-An Li, Jia-Yu Zhang +2

We investigate how simultaneous mass and radius measurements of massive neutron stars (NSs) can help constrain properties of dark matter (DM) possibly admixed in them. Within a fer…

Imprints of high-density nuclear symmetry energy on the crustal fraction of neutron star moment of inertia

Nai-Bo Zhang, Bao-An Li

The density dependence of nuclear symmetry energy remains the most uncertain aspect of the equation of state (EOS) of supradense neutron-rich nucleonic matter. Im…

Impact of the nuclear equation of state on the formation of twin stars

Nai-Bo Zhang, Bao-An Li

Twin stars-two stable neutron stars (NSs) with the same mass but different radii have long been proposed to appear as a consequence of a possible first-order phase transition in NS…

Bayesian Inference of Fine-Features of Nuclear Equation of State from Future Neutron Star Radius Measurements to 0.1km Accuracy

Bao-An Li, Xavier Grundler, Wen-Jie Xie +1

To more precisely constrain the Equation of State (EOS) of supradense neutron-rich nuclear matter, future high-precision X-ray and gravitational wave observatories are proposed to…
