Measuring radii of merging neutron stars with interface-mode asteroseismology informed by nuclear theory and experiment
Duncan Neill, William G. Newton, Jeremy W. Holt +3
The structure and dynamics of neutron stars can be used to probe the physics of extreme matter at nuclear densities and beyond. Nucleonic matter up to ~2-3 times nuclear saturation…
Unified study of nuclear physics and dark matter constraints through gravitational-wave observations of binary neutron star mergers
Nina Kunert, Guilherme Grams, William Newton +5
Understanding the properties of strongly interacting matter at extreme densities is a central problem in fundamental physics, with neutron star mergers offering a natural laborator…
Resonant shattering flares as asteroseismic tests of chiral effective field theory
Duncan Neill, David Tsang, Christian Drischler +2
Chiral effective field theory (EFT) has proved to be a powerful microscopic framework for predicting the properties of neutron-rich nuclear matter with quantified theoretical un…
Strengthening nuclear symmetry energy constraints using multiple resonant shattering flares of neutron stars with realistic mass uncertainties
Duncan Neill, David Tsang, William G. Newton
With current and planned gravitational-wave (GW) observing runs, coincident multimessenger timing of Resonant Shattering Flares (RSFs) and GWs may soon allow for neutron star (NS)…
Shedding Light on the EOS-Gravity Degeneracy and Constraining the Nuclear Symmetry Energy from the Gravitational Binding Energy of Neutron Stars
Xiao-Tao He, F. J. Fattoyev, Bao-An Li +1
A thorough understanding of properties of neutron stars requires both a reliable knowledge of the equation of state (EOS) of super-dense nuclear matter and the strong-field gravity…
Impact of the equation-of-state -- gravity degeneracy on constraining the nuclear symmetry energy from astrophysical observables
Xiao-Tao He, F. J. Fattoyev, Bao-An Li +1
There is a degeneracy between the equation of state (EOS) of superdense neutron-rich nuclear matter and the strong-field gravity in understanding properties of neutron stars. While…
Probing the high-density behavior of symmetry energy with gravitational waves
F. J. Fattoyev, W. G. Newton, Bao-An Li
Gravitational wave (GW) astronomy opens up an entirely new window on the Universe to probe the equations of state (EOS) of neutron-rich matter. With the advent of next generation G…
Constraints on the symmetry energy from neutron star observations
W. G. Newton, M. Gearheart, De-Hua Wen +1
The modeling of many neutron star observables incorporates the microphysics of both the stellar crust and core, which is tied intimately to the properties of the nuclear matter equ…
Constraining the High-Density Behavior of Nuclear Symmetry Energy with the Tidal Polarizability of Neutron Stars
F. J. Fattoyev, J. Carvajal, W. G. Newton +1
Using a set of model equations of state satisfying the latest constraints from both terrestrial nuclear experiments and astrophysical observations as well as state-of-the-art nucle…
A survey of the parameter space of the compressible liquid drop model as applied to the neutron star inner crust
W. G. Newton, M. Gearheart, Bao-An Li
We present a systematic survey the range of predictions of the neutron star inner crust composition, crust-core transition densities and pressures, and density range of the nuclear…
Upper limits on the observational effects of nuclear pasta in neutron stars
M. Gearheart, W. G. Newton, J. Hooker +1
The effects of the existence of exotic nuclear shapes at the bottom of the neutron star inner crust - nuclear `pasta' - on observational phenomena are estimated by comparing the li…
Constraining the gravitational binding energy of PSR J0737-3039B using terrestrial nuclear data
W. G. Newton, Bao-an Li
We show that the gravitational binding energy of a neutron star of a given mass is correlated with the slope of the nuclear symmetry energy at 1-2 times nuclear saturation density…
