The recent observation of a compact star with a mass of $M=0.77^{+0.20}_{-0.17}~{\rm M_{\odot}}$ and a radius of $R=10.4^{+0.86}_{-0.78}$ km, located within the supernova remnant HESS J1731-347, has substantially reinforced the evidence for…

Hyperons are essential constituents in the neutron star interior. The poorly-known hyperonic interaction is a source of uncertainty for studying laboratory hypernuclei and neutron star observations. In this work, we perform Bayesian…
In this work, we study matter in the cores of proto-neutron stars, focusing on the impact of their composition on the stellar structure. We begin by examining the effects of finite temperature (through a fixed entropy per baryon) and lepton…
I discuss the structure and composition of massive (two solar-mass) neutron stars containing hypernuclear and deconfined quark matter in color superconducting states. Stable configurations featuring such matter are obtained if the equation…
The compact object with a mass of $2.50-2.67~M_\odot$ observed by LIGO Scientific and Virgo collaborations in GW190814, as well as the recent report of a light compact object with a mass and radius of $M=0.77^{+0.20}_{-0.17}M_{\odot}$ and…
The recent past witnesses the growing interdependence between the physics of hadrons, the physics of relativistic heavy-ion collisions, and the physics of compact objects in astrophysics. A notable example is the kaon which plays special…
We investigate the properties of the hadron-quark mixed phase in compact stars using a Brueckner-Hartree-Fock framework for hadronic matter and the MIT bag model for quark matter. We find that the equation of state of the mixed phase is…
We study the equation of state of hyperon-rich matter for neutron stars using an extended relativistic mean-field model. We take special care of the recently proposed non-linear behaviour of the vector field which gives a much better…
Neutron stars contain matter in one of the densest forms found in the Universe. This feature, together with the unprecedented progress in observational astrophysics, makes such stars superb astrophysical laboratories for a broad range of…
The existence of stars with masses up to $2 M_{\odot}$ and the hints of the existence of stars with radii smaller than $\sim 11$ km seem to require, at the same time, a stiff and a soft hadronic equation of state at large densities. We…
We investigate the possible sequels, for the hybrid compact stars consisting of nucleons, hyperons and three flavour color-flavor-locked quarks phase under global neutrality and chemical equilibrium conditions. The hadron equations of state…

Finite-temperature equation of state (EoS) and the composition of dense nuclear and hypernuclear matter under conditions characteristic of neutron star binary merger remnants and supernovas are discussed. We consider both neutrino…
In this work I briefly review some of the effects of hyperons on the properties of neutron and proto-neutron stars. In particular, I revise the problem of the strong softening of the EoS, and the consequent reduction of the maximum mass,…
