Pulsar timing of double neutron star (DNS) systems is one of the best methodologies to study the neutron star masses distribution. Here we report the discovery of a double neutron star system PSR J0641+0448 in the Five-hundred-meter…
We consider neutron star configurations in the scalar-tensor theory of gravity with the coupling between the kinetic term of a scalar field and the Einstein tensor (such the model is a subclass of Horndeski gravity). Neutron stars in this…
This article presents a new model for anisotropic compact stars that are confined to physical dark matter in the background of $f(T)$ teleparallel gravity. The model is based on the equation of state (EoS) of the bag model type and the…
(abridged) In this work we present the results of one year of upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope timing measurements of PSR~J0514$-$4002A, a 4.99-ms pulsar in a 18.8-day, eccentric ($e \, =\, 0.89$) orbit with a massive companion…
Some highly irradiated close-in exoplanets orbit stars showing anomalously low stellar chromospheric emission. We attribute this to absorption by circumstellar gas replenished by mass loss from ablating planets. Here we report statistics…

In the present work, we constrain the equation of the state of dense matter in the context of heaviest observed neutron star mass M$_{max}$ = 2.35$\pm 0.17$ M$_{\odot}$ for the black widow pulsar PSR J0952-0607. We propose three…
We have used the Green Bank Telescope to observe the millisecond pulsar PSR J0514-4002A on 43 occasions spread over 2 years. This 5-ms pulsar is located in the globular cluster NGC 1851; it belongs to a binary system and has a highly…
We model the mass distribution in the recently discovered Einstein ring LBG J213512.73-010143 (the `Cosmic Eye') using archival Hubble Space Telescope imaging. We reconstruct the mass density profile of the z=0.73 lens and the surface…
Compact objects have an intrinsic anisotropy due to the presence of strong magnetic fields that cause considerable modifications on the equations of state (EoS). In this work, we study the impact of this anisotropy in the size and shape of…
We compute the 20 lowest frequency radial oscillation modes of strange stars admixed with condensed dark matter. We assume a self-interacting bosonic dark matter, and we model dark matter inside the star as a Bose-Einstein condensate. In…
The stellar orbital anisotropy parameter ($\beta_{\rm ani}$) is a persistent systematic uncertainty in galaxy-scale strong gravitational lensing (SGL) cosmology. Typically fixed to isotropy or a local prior, it frequently degenerates with…
