For more comparison, the extended BHF approaches using the self-consistent Green’s function approach or by including a three-body force will be done. The EOS will be studied for different approaches at zero temperature. We can calculate the total mass and radius of neutron stars using various equations of state. A comparison with relativistic BHF calculations will be done. Relativistic effects are known to be important at high densities, giving an increased repulsion. This leads to a stiffer EOS compared to the EOS derived with a non-relativistic approach.展开更多

Based ...In a second-order r-mode theory, Sa and Tome found that the r-mode oscillation in neutron stars （NSs） could induce stellar differential rotation, which naturally leads to a saturated state of the oscillation. Based on a consideration of the coupling of the r-modes and the stellar spin and thermal evolution, we carefully investigate the influences of the differential rotation on the long-term evolution of isolated NSs and NSs in low-mass X-ray binaries, where the viscous damping of the r-modes and its resultant effects are taken into account. The numerical results show that, for both kinds of NSs, the differential rotation can significantly prolong the duration of the r-modes. As a result, the stars can keep nearly a constant temperature and constant angular velocity for over a thousand years. Moreover, the persistent radiation of a quasi-monochromatic gravitational wave would also be predicted due to the long-term steady r-mode oscillation and stellar rotation. This increases the detectability of gravitational waves from both young isolated and old accreting NSs.展开更多

To facilitate the realization of this goal, the feasibility of using an explicitly isospin-dependent parametric EOS for neutron star matter was investigated recently in [1–3]. In this contribution, in addition to outlining the model framework and summarizing the most important findings from [1–3], we report a few new results regarding constraining parameters characterizing the highdensity behavior of nuclear symmetry energy. In particular,the constraints on the pressure of neutron star matter extracted from combining the X-ray observations of the neutron star radius, the minimum–maximum mass M=2:01 M_⊙, and causality condition agree very well with those extracted from analyzing the tidal deformability data by the LIGO ? Virgo Collaborations. The limitations of using the radius and/or tidal deformability of neutron stars to constrain the high-density nuclear symmetry energy are discussed.展开更多

We find that if the interior field is on the same order as the surface field currently observed, then the influences of the field on the star's mass and radius are negligible; if the field is as large as that estimated from the scalar virial theorem, then considerable effects will be induced. The maximum mass of the star will be increased substantially while the central density is greatly reduced. The radius of a magnetic star can be larger by about 10% ~ 20% than a nonmagnetic star of the same mass.展开更多

Sequences of models are numerically computed by means of a computer code that solves the full Einstein equations exactly. This code employs Neugebauer’s minimal surface formalism, where the field equations are equivalent to two-dimensional minimal surface equations for 4 metric potentials. The calculations are based upon 10 different equations of state. Results of various structures of neutron stars and the rotational effects on stellar structures and properties are reported. Finally some limits to equations of state of neutron stars and the stability for rapidly rotating relativistic neutron stars are discussed.展开更多

文摘The equation of state of neutron stars is studied in the newly developed density dependent relativistic Hartree-Fock (DDRHF) theory with the effective interaction PKO1 and applied to describe the properties of neutron stars. The results are compared with the recent observational data of compact stars and those calculated with the relativistic mean field (RMF) effective interactions. The maximum mass of neutron stars calculated with PKO1 is about 2.45 M ⊙, which consists with high pulsar mass from PSR B1516+02B recently reported. The influence of Fock terms on the cooling of neutron stars is discussed as well.

文摘<正> Stationary axial symmetric equilibrium configurations rapidly rotating with uniform angular velocity in the framework of genera! relativity are considered. Sequences of models are numerically computed by means of a computer code that solves the full Einstein equations exactly. This code employs Neugebauer’s minimal surface formalism, where the field equations are equivalent to two-dimensional minimal surface equations for 4 metric potentials. The calculations are based upon 10 different equations of state. Results of various structures of neutron stars and the rotational effects on stellar structures and properties are reported. Finally some limits to equations of state of neutron stars and the stability for rapidly rotating relativistic neutron stars are discussed.

文摘The recent measurements of neutron skins via parity violation in electron scattering have extracted an abnormally thick neutron skin for 208 Pb,which has significant consequences in nuclear equation of state(EoS)and neutron star observations.In this study,we perform optimizations of extended Skyrme forces in a consistent manner by including neutron skin thicknesses from PREX-Ⅱand CREX experiments and investigate nuclear EoSs and neutron stars in the GW170817 event By varying the fitting weights of neutron skins,several new Skyrme parameterizations are obtained.Our results show the competition in the fitting procedure to simultaneously describe neutron skins,other properties of finite nuclei,and neutron star observations.The prospects of resolving neutron skin issues are also discussed.
