In neutron stars, flavor-changing weak interactions determine the equilibrium fraction of protons over neutrons. In binary neutron-star mergers, violent changes in density modify this equilibrium value at timescales of milliseconds,…
Recent observations of neutron-star properties, in particular the recent detection of gravitational waves emitted from binary neutron stars, GW 170817, open the way to put strong constraints on nuclear interactions. In this paper, we review…
We calculate the shear viscosity $\eta = \eta_{e\mu}+\eta_{n}$ in a neutron star core composed of nucleons, electrons and muons ($\eta_{e\mu}$ being the electron-muon viscosity, mediated by collisions of electrons and muons with charged…
We discuss different exotic phases and components of matter from the crust to the core of neutron stars based on theoretical models for equations of state relevant to core collapse supernova simulations and neutron star merger. Parameters…

We discuss the high-density nuclear equation of state within the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approach. Particular attention is paid to the effects of nucleonic three-body forces, the presence of hyperons, and the joining with an eventual quark…
In this work we review the role of hyperons on the properties of neutron and proto-neutron stars. In particular, we revise the so-called "hyperon puzzle", go over some of the solutions proposed to tackle it, and discuss the implications…
We study the bulk viscosity in two (anti-spaghetti and Swiss cheese) phases of non- spherical nuclei in the mantle of an oscillating neutron star near the boundary with the stellar core. The bulk viscosity is produced by non-equilibrium…
The current picture of the collapse and explosion of massive stars and the formation of neutron stars is reviewed. According to the favored scenario, however by no means proven and undisputed, neutrinos deposit the energy of the explosion…
We investigate the effect of the density-dependent proton and neutron gaps on vortex dynamics in neutron stars. We argue that the persistence of neutron star magnetic fields on timescales of $10^9$ y suggests a superconducting gap curve…
Neutrino propagation in protoneutron stars requires the knowledge of the composition as well as the dynamical response function of dense hadronic matter. Matter at very high densities is probably composed of other particles than nucleons…

The early evolution of a protoneutron star depends both on the equation of state and neutrino interactions at high density. We identify the important sources of neutrino opacity and through model calculations show that in-medium effects…

We present a neural network classification model for detecting the presence of hyperonic degrees of freedom in neutron stars. The models take radii and/or tidal deformabilities as input and give the probability for the presence of hyperons…
