Hot Neutron Star Matter and Proto-Neutron Stars
D. Farrell, A. Alp, W. Spinella +4
In this chapter, we investigate the structure and composition of hot neutron star matter and proto-neutron stars. Such objects are made of baryonic matter that is several times den…
Phases of Hadron-Quark Matter in (Proto) Neutron Stars
F. Weber, D. Farrell, W. M. Spinella +4
In the first part of this paper, we investigate the possible existence of a structured hadron-quark mixed phase in the cores of neutron stars. This phase, referred to as the hadron…
Hyperonic Neutron Star Matter in Light of GW170817
William M. Spinella, Fridolin Weber
Since 2013 the mass of pulsar PSR J0348+0432 () has provided a tight constraint on neutron star equation of state. However, a number of different analyses of t…
Thermal evolution of hybrid stars within the framework of a nonlocal Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model
S. M. de Carvalho, R. Negreiros, M. Orsaria +3
We study the thermal evolution of neutron stars containing deconfined quark matter in their core. Such objects are generally referred to as quark-hybrid stars. The confined hadroni…
Testing the spin-cutoff parameterization with shell-model calculations
William M. Spinella, Calvin W. Johnson
The nuclear level density, an important input to Hauser-Feshbach calculations, depends not only on excitation energy but also on angular momentum J. The J-dependence of the level d…
