The post-merger product of the first binary neutron star merger event detected in gravitational waves, GW170817, depends on neutron star equation of state (EoS) and is not well determined. We generally discuss the constraints one may pose…
The maximum mass of a neutron star is generally determined by the equation of state of the star material. In this study, we take into account dark matter particles, assumed to behave like fermions with a free parameter to account for the…

The determination of neutron star masses is reviewed in light of a new measurement of 1.97 M$_\odot$ for PSR J1614-2230 and an estimate of 2.4 M$_\odot$ for the black widow pulsar. Using a simple analytic model related to the so-called…
The maximum mass of neutron stars ($M_{\rm TOV}$) plays a crucial role in understanding their equation of state (EoS). Previous studies have used the measurements for the compactness of massive pulsars and the tidal deformability of neutron…
This article studies the maximum mass limit of the quark star formed after the shock-induced phase transition of a cold neutron star. By employing hadronic and quark equation of state that satisfies the current mass bound, we use combustion…

In this paper we present a strange stellar model using Tolman $V$ type metric potential employing simplest form of the MIT bag equation of state (EOS) for the quark matter. We consider that the stellar system is spherically symmetric,…
By assuming the formation of a black hole soon after the merger event of GW170817, Shibata et al. updated the constraints on the maximum mass ($M_\textrm{max}$) of a stable neutron star within $\lesssim$ 2.3 $M_{\odot}$, but there is no…
One of the key questions in Astrophysics concerns the issue of whether there exists an upper-mass limit to stars, and if so, what physical mechanism sets this limit, which might also determine if the upper-mass limit is metallicity (Z)…
The limiting mass is a significant characteristic for compact exotic stars. In the case of quark stars, the limiting mass can be expressed in terms of fundamental constants and the Bag constant. In the present work, using bag model…
In order to systematically examine the possible maximum mass of neutron stars, which is one of the important properties characterizing the physics in high-density region, I construct neutron star models by adopting phenomenological…
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…
As is well known, there are various mass limits for compact stars. For example, the maximum mass for non-rotating white dwarfs is given by the famous Chandrasekhar limit about $1.4 M_\odot$ (solar masses). Although the mass limit for…
The recent fast growth of a population of millisecond pulsars with precisely measured mass provides an excellent opportunity to characterize these compact stars at an unprecedented level. This is because the stellar parameter values can be…

In this article we study the structure and stability of compact astrophysical objects which are ruled by the dark energy equation of state (EoS). The existence of dark energy is important for explaining the current accelerated expansion of…
We find constraints on minimum and maximum mass of ordinary neutron stars imposed by their early evolution (protoneutron star stage). We calculate models of protoneutron stars using a realistic standard equation of state of hot, dense…
We perform hydrodynamical simulations of neutron-star mergers for a large sample of temperature-dependent, nuclear equations of state, and determine the threshold mass above which the merger remnant promptly collapses to form a black hole.…
We construct a set of hyperonic equations of state (EoS) by assuming SU(3) symmetry within the baryon octet and by using a covariant density functional (CDF) theory approach. The low-density regions of our EoS are constrained by terrestrial…
