Hyperons in hot dense matter: what do the constraints tell us for equation of state?

M. Fortin, M. Oertel, C. Providência

For core-collapse and neutron star merger simulations it is important to have at hand adequate equations of state, describing the underlying dense and hot matter as realistically a…

Accurate ray tracing of realistic neutron star atmospheres for constraining their parameters

F. H. Vincent, M. Bejger, A. Rozanska +9

Thermal dominated X-ray spectra of neutron stars in quiescent transient X-ray binaries and neutron stars that undergo thermonuclear bursts are sensitive to mass and radius. The mas…

Thermal states of neutron stars with a consistent model of interior

M. Fortin, G. Taranto, G. F. Burgio +3

We model the thermal states of both isolated neutron stars and accreting neutron stars in X-ray transients in quiescence and confront them with observations. We use an equation of…

Neutrino luminosities and heat capacities of neutron stars in analytic form

D. D. Ofengeim, M. Fortin, P. Haensel +2

We derive analytic approximations for the neutrino luminosities and the heat capacities of neutron stars with isothernal nucleon cores as functions of the mass and radius of stars.…

Theia: Faint objects in motion or the new astrometry frontier

The Theia Collaboration, Celine Boehm, Alberto Krone-Martins +96

In the context of the ESA M5 (medium mission) call we proposed a new satellite mission, Theia, based on relative astrometry and extreme precision to study the motion of very faint…

(No) neutron star maximum mass constraint from hypernuclei

M. Fortin, S. S. Avancini, C. Providência +1

(Abridged) The recent measurement of the mass of two pulsars has raised the question whether such large masses allow for the existence of exotic degrees of freedom, s…
