Dark energy stars (DESs), described by the modified Chaplygin gas (MCG), can be dynamically stable and fall within different observational measurements. In this work, we employ diverse macroscopic properties, such as compactness $C$, moment…
Among the various oscillation modes of neutron stars, f- and g- modes are the most likely to be ultimately observed in binary neutron star mergers. The f-mode is known to correlate in normal neutron stars with their tidal deformability,…
Here we investigate the axial w quasi-normal modes of neutron stars for several equations of state. In particular, we study the influence of the presence of hyperons in the core of the neutron stars. We have obtained that w-modes can be…
We present several arguments which favor the scenario of two coexisting families of compact stars: hadronic stars and quark stars. Besides the well known hyperon puzzle of the physics of compact stars, a similar puzzle exists also when…
This study presents a universal relation for anisotropic neutron stars, called the $I-f-C$ relation, which accounts for the local anisotropic pressure using the Quasi-Local (QL) Model proposed by Horvat et al. \cite{QL_Model} to describe…

The density in the core of neutron stars can reach values of about 5 to 10 times nuclear matter saturation density. It is, therefore, a natural assumption that hadrons may have dissolved into quarks under such conditions, forming a hybrid…
We study the dynamical stability against bar-mode deformation of rapidly and differentially rotating stars in the first post-Newtonian approximation of general relativity. We vary the compaction of the star $M/R$ (where $M$ is the…

Neutron stars are known to host extremely powerful magnetic fields. Among other effects, one of the consequences of harbouring such fields is the deformation of the neutron star structure, leading, together with rotation, to the emission of…
We review the covariant density functional approach to the equation of state of the dense nuclear matter in compact stars. The main emphasis is on the hyperonization of the dense matter, and the role played by the $\Delta$-resonances. The…
Employing a recently proposed metamodeling for the nucleonic matter equation of state we analyze neutron star global properties such as masses, radii, momentum of inertia, and others. The impact of the uncertainty on empirical parameters on…
