We investigate in this paper the structures of neutron stars under the strong magnetic field in the framework of $f(T)$ gravity where $T$ denotes the scalar torsion. The TOV equations in this theory of gravity have been considered and…
The equation of state inside very compact objects like neutron stars is still largely unkown. Even though a lot progress has been made in recent years to develop the so-called realistic equations of state, a lot of insight can be gained by…
I review attempts made to determine the properties of neutron stars. I focus on constraints on the maximum mass that a neutron star can have, and on attempts to measure neutron-star radii. So far, there appears to be only one neutron star…
Neutron stars are regarded as natural laboratories for the study of dense strong interaction matter. The equation of state (EoS) of dense matter computed in flat spacetime is used to predict the structure of neutron stars by solving the…
Few unified equations of state for neutron star matter where core and crust are described using the same nuclear model are available. However the use of non-unified equations of state with a simplified matching between the crust and the…
This study explores the behavior of compact stars within the framework of $f(R,L_m,T)$ gravity, focusing on the functional form $f(R,L_m,T) = R + \alpha TL_m$. The modified Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff (TOV) equations are derived and…

Neutron stars are valuable laboratories for the study of dense matter. Recent observations have uncovered both massive and low-mass neutron stars and have also set constraints on neutron star radii. The largest mass measurements are…
Recent observational results for the masses and radii of some neutron stars are in contrast with typical observations and theoretical predictions for "normal" neutron stars. We propose that their unusual properties can be interpreted as the…
