We discuss different exotic phases and components of matter from the crust to the core of neutron stars based on theoretical models for equations of state relevant to core collapse supernova simulations and neutron star merger. Parameters…
I have demonstrated the existence of a tight correlation between the mass, radius, central density, and pressure of maximum-mass neutron stars modeled using diverse baryonic equations of state. A possible explanation for these correlations…
We generalize the Bogoliubov quark-meson coupling model to also include hyperons. The hyperon-$\sigma$-meson couplings are fixed by the model and the hyperon-$\omega$-meson couplings are fitted to the hypreon potentials in symmetric nuclear…
We discuss the effects induced by the potential presence of hyperons in hot and ultra-dense matter within the context of neutron star mergers. Specifically, we address their effect on the dominant post-merger frequency of the gravitational…
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 as possible. Here, we present two newly constructed equation…
The effects of strong magnetic fields on neutron star matter are investigated in the quark-meson coupling (QMC) model. The QMC model describes a nuclear many-body system as nonoverlapping MIT bags in which quarks interact through…
We propose a universal approximation of the equation of state of superdense matter in neutron star (NS) interiors. It contains only two parameters, the pressure and the density at the center of the maximally massive neutron star. We…
The density dependent hadron field (DDRH) theory, previously applied to isospin nuclei and hypernuclei is used to describe $\beta$-stable matter and neutron stars under consideration of the complete baryon octet. The meson-hyperon vertices…
We consider the so called hyperon puzzle of neutron star (NS). We employ Skyrme force models for the description of in-medium nucleon-nucleon, nucleon-Lambda hyperon ($N\Lambda$), and Lambda-Lambda ($\Lambda\Lambda$) interactions. A…
Motivated by a recent astrophysical measurement of the pressure of cold matter above nuclear-matter saturation density, we compute the equation of state of neutron star matter using accurately calibrated relativistic models. The uniform…
Neutron stars are the densest, directly observable stellar objects in the universe and serve as unique astrophysical laboratories to study the behavior of matter under extreme physical conditions. This book chapter is devoted to describing…
Using a self-consistent, Hartree description for both infinite nuclear matter and finite nuclei based on a relativistic quark model (the quark-meson coupling model), we investigate the variation of the masses of the non-strange vector…
This short review aims at giving a brief overview of the various states of matter that have been suggested to exist in the ultra-dense centers of neutron stars. Particular emphasis is put on the role of quark deconfinement in neutron stars…
If a light gluino exists, the lightest gluino-containing baryon, the \OSO, is a possible candidate for self-interacting dark matter. In this scenario, the simplest explanation for the observed ratio $\Omega_{dm}/\Omega_b \approx 6-10$ is…
We explore the possibility of formation of $\Delta$ baryons (1232 MeV) in neutron star matter in an effective chiral model within the relativistic mean-field framework. With variation in delta-meson couplings, consistent with the…
The properties of neutron stars constituted of a crust of hadrons and an internal part of hadrons and kaon condensate are calculated within the quark-meson-coupling model. We have considered stars with nucleons only in the hadron phase and…
The improved quark mass density- dependent model, which has been successfully used to describe the properties of both finite nuclei and bulk nuclear matter, is extended to include the strange quark. The parameters of the model are…
In this work we present a newly constructed equation of state (EoS) --applicable to stellar core collapse and neutron star mergers--, including the entire baryon octet. Our EoS is compatible with the main constraints from nuclear physics…
The profile of a neutron star probes a very large range of densities, from the density of iron up to several times the density of saturated nuclear matter, and thus no theory of hadrons can be considered reliable if extended to those…
Neutron star properties depend on both nuclear physics and astrophysical processes, and thus observations of neutron stars offer constraints on both large-scale astrophysics and the behavior of cold, dense matter. In this study, we use…
