Evidence for a Continuous Hadron--Quark Transition in Cold Dense Matter

Yong-Jia Huang, Bikai Gao

Statistical evidence for a continuous hadron-quark transition is found in this work. Confronting microscopic descriptions connecting the Parity Doublet Model and the Nambu--Jona-La…

Post-Merger Gravitational-Wave Uncertainties of Binary Neutron Stars under Multi-Messenger EOS Constraints

Yong-Jia Huang, Luca Baiotti

The high-frequency gravitational waves emitted by a binary neutron star merger remnant carry information on matter at densities and temperatures beyond those reached in isolated ne…

Neutron Star Observations Challenge a Large Colour-Superconducting Gap in Dense Quark Matter

Shao-Peng Tang, Yong-Jia Huang, Yi-Zhong Fan

At asymptotically high density, quantum chromodynamics (QCD) predicts that quark matter becomes a colour superconductor in the colour-flavour-locked (CFL) phase, yet, away from the…

The Non-parametric Equation of State Realizes a Generalized Quark-Hadron Crossover

Yong-Jia Huang, Shao-Peng Tang, Yi-Zhong Fan

We propose a non-parametric approach to construct the statistical equation of state (EOS) continuously from the nuclear crust to the asymptotic-freedom regime. The combined require…

Phase transition and nuclear symmetry energy from neutron star observations: Constraints in light of PSR J0614--3329

Shao-Peng Tang, Yong-Jia Huang, Yi-Zhong Fan

The possible occurrence of a first-order hadron-quark phase transition (FOPT) in neutron-star interiors remains an open question. Whether such a transition can be directly tested w…

The maximum mass and rotational kinetic energy of rapidly rotating neutron stars

Shao-Peng Tang, Yong-Jia Huang, Yi-Zhong Fan

Rapid uniformly-rotating neutron stars are expected to be formed for instance in the collapse of some massive stars, the accretion of compact object binaries, and double neutron st…

Upper Limit of Sound Speed in Nuclear Matter: A Harmonious Interplay of Transport Calculation and Perturbative Quantum Chromodynamic Constraint

Shao-Peng Tang, Yong-Jia Huang, Ming-Zhe Han +1

Very recently, it has been shown that there is an upper bound on the squared sound speed of nuclear matter from the transport, which reads . In this work, w…

Mass and radius of the most massive neutron star: The probe of the equation of state and perturbative QCD

Shao-Peng Tang, Ming-Zhe Han, Yong-Jia Huang +2

Recently, an association of GW190425 and FRB 20190425A had been claimed and a highly magnetized neutron star (NS) remnant was speculated. Given the -h delay of the occurr…

Plausible presence of new state in neutron stars with masses above

Ming-Zhe Han, Yong-Jia Huang, Shao-Peng Tang +1

We investigate the neutron star (NS) equation of state (EOS) by incorporating multi-messenger data of GW170817, PSR J0030+0451, PSR J0740+6620, and state-of-the-art theoretical pro…

Merger and post-merger of binary neutron stars with a quark-hadron crossover equation of state

Yong-Jia Huang, Luca Baiotti, Toru Kojo +6

Fully general-relativistic binary-neutron-star (BNS) merger simulations with quark-hadron crossover (QHC) equations of state (EOSs) are studied for the first time. In contrast to E…
