Abstract

We explore the effects of strangeness and Δ\Delta resonance in baryonic matter and compact stars within the relativistic-mean-field (RMF) models. The covariant density functional PKDD is adopted for NN-NN interaction, parameters fixed based on finite hypernuclei and neutron stars are taken for the hyperon-meson couplings, and the universal baryon-meson coupling scheme is adopted for the Δ\Delta-meson couplings. In light of the recent observations of GW170817 with the dimensionless combined tidal deformability 197Λˉ720197 \leq \bar{\Lambda}\leq 720, we find it is essential to include the Δ\Delta resonances in compact stars, and small Δ\Delta-ρ\rho coupling gρΔg_{\rho \Delta} is favored if the mass 2.270.15+0.17 M2.27{}_{-0.15}^{+0.17}\ M_\odot of PSR J2215+5135 is confirmed.
