What a Two Solar Mass Neutron Star Really Means
James M. Lattimer, M. Prakash
The determination of neutron star masses is reviewed in light of a new measurement of 1.97 M for PSR J1614-2230 and an estimate of 2.4 M for the black widow pulsar.…

Rapid Cooling of the Neutron Star in Cassiopeia A Triggered by Neutron Superfluidity in Dense Matter
Dany Page, Madappa Prakash, James M. Lattimer +1
We propose that the observed cooling of the neutron star in Cassiopeia A is due to enhanced neutrino emission from the recent onset of the breaking and formation of neutron Cooper…
