Massive Neutron Stars with Hadron-Quark Transition Core : phenomenological approach by "3-window model"

Nuclear Theory 2015-12-29 v1

Abstract

By a new approach introducing a "3-window model" and constructing phenomenologically an equation of state for the hadron-quark (HQ) transition region, possible maximum mass of neutron stars (NSs) is discussed. It is found that neutron stars (NSs) with HQ transition core are able to have a mass exceeding two-solar mass, consistent with massive NSs recently observed.
