We studied recent observation data of pulsar masses and radii of PSR J0740$+$6620, PSR J0348$+$0432, and PSR J1614$-$2230 from different measurements, based on the extended version of $\sigma $-$ \omega$ model. Throughout our analysis, we…

Recent NICER observation data on PSR J0030+0451 has recently added a unique mass-radius constraint on the properties of the superdense nuclear matter existing in the interior of compact stars. Such a macroscopic data restrict further the…

By directly inverting several neutron star observables in the three-dimensional parameter space for the Equation of State of super-dense neutron-rich nuclear matter, we show that the lower radius limit for PSR J0740+6620 of mass $2.08\pm…

PSR J0740$+$6620 has a gravitational mass of $2.08\pm 0.07~M_\odot$, which is the highest reliably determined mass of any neutron star. As a result, a measurement of its radius will provide unique insight into the properties of neutron star…

In this work we study the parameters of the extended $\sigma$-$\omega$ model for neutron star matter by a Bayesian analysis on state-of-the-art multi-messenger astronomy observations, namely mass, radius and tidal deformabilities. We have…

Recent measurement of a high millisecond pulsar mass (PSR J1614-2230, 1.97+-0.04 Msun) compared with the low mass of PSR J0751+1807 (1.26+-0.14 Msun) indicates a large span of masses of recycled pulsars and suggests a broad range of neutron…

PSR J0740+6620 is the neutron star with the highest precisely determined mass, inferred from radio observations to be $2.08\pm0.07\,\rm M_\odot$. Measurements of its radius therefore hold promise to constrain the properties of the cold,…

We report on new orbit-minimum photometry and revised radial-velocity fitting that provide an improved measurement of the mass of the neutron star (NS) in pulsar PSR~J0952$-$0607 at $M_NS = 2.35\pm 0.11 M_\odot$. With its fast spin and…

Galactic double neutron star systems have a tight mass distribution around $\sim 1.35 M_{\odot}$, but the mass distribution of all known pulsars is broader. Here we reconstruct the Alsing, et al. (2018) bimodal mass distribution of pulsars…
