Proto-Neutron Star Cooling with Convection: The Effect of the Symmetry Energy

Luke F. Roberts, Gang Shen, Vincenzo Cirigliano +3

We model neutrino emission from a newly born neutron star subsequent to a supernova explosion to study its sensitivity to the equation of state, neutrino opacities, and convective…

Strangelet dwarfs

Mark G. Alford, Sophia Han, Sanjay Reddy

If the surface tension of quark matter is low enough, quark matter is not self bound. At sufficiently low pressure and temperature, it will take the form of a crystal of positively…

Bridging the gap by shaking superfluid matter

Mark G. Alford, Sanjay Reddy, Kai Schwenzer

In cold compact stars, Cooper pairing between fermions in dense matter leads to the formation of a gap in their excitation spectrum and typically exponentially suppresses transport…

A low energy theory for superfluid and solid matter and its application to the neutron star crust

Vincenzo Cirigliano, Sanjay Reddy, Rishi Sharma

We formulate a low energy effective theory describing phases of matter that are both solid and superfluid. These systems simultaneously break translational symmetry and the phase s…

The maximum mass and radius of neutron stars and the nuclear symmetry energy

S. Gandolfi, J. Carlson, Sanjay Reddy

We calculate the equation of state of neutron matter with realistic two- and three-nucleon interactions using quantum Monte Carlo techniques, and illustrate that the short-range th…
