Causality alone suffices to set a lower bound on the period of rotation of relativistic stars as a function of their maximum observed mass. That is, by assuming a one-parameter equation of state (EOS) that satisfies v_sound < c and that…
Properties, structure, and thermal evolution of neutron stars are determined by the equation of state of stellar matter. Recent data on isospin-diffusion and isoscaling in heavy-ion collisions at intermediate energies as well as the size of…

Rapid uniformly-rotating neutron stars are expected to be formed for instance in the collapse of some massive stars, the accretion of compact object binaries, and double neutron star mergers. The huge amount of the rotational energy has…
We show that the neutron star minimum period of rotation is determined, for causal equations of state, by the maximum value of the relativistic (compactness) parameter 2GM/Rc^2, allowed by causality for static neutron stars, 0.7081, and by…

The stellar compactness, that is, the dimensionless ratio between the mass and radius of a compact star, $\mathcal{C} := M/R$, plays a fundamental role in characterising the gravitational and nuclear-physics aspects of neutron stars. Yet,…
We study the main astrophysical properties of differentially rotating neutron stars described as stationary and axisymmetric configurations of a moderately stiff $\Gamma=2$ polytropic fluid. The high level of accuracy and of stability of…

The existence of massive compact stars $(M\gtrsim 2.1 M_{\odot})$ implies that the conformal limit of the speed of sound $c_s^2=1/3$ is violated if those stars have a crust of ordinary nuclear matter. Here we show that, if the most massive…
