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…
