We investigate the effect of exotic matter in particular, hyperon matter on neutron star properties such as equation of state (EoS), mass-radius relationship and bulk viscosity. Here we construct equations of state within the framework of a…
We study shear stress relaxation for a gelling melt of randomly crosslinked, interacting monomers. We derive a lower bound for the static shear viscosity $\eta$, which implies that it diverges algebraically with a critical exponent $k\ge…
In order to extract maximal information from neutron-star merger signals, both gravitational and electromagnetic, we need to ensure that our theoretical models/numerical simulations faithfully represent the extreme physics involved. This…
We investigate the cooling of neutron stars with relativistic and non-relativistic models of dense nuclear matter. We focus on the effects of uncertainties originated from the nuclear models, the composition of elements in the envelope…
The existence of a dark baryon that mixes with the neutron leads to the possibility of neutron decay into a dark sector. Such dark decays have been studied as possibly relevant for the neutron decay anomaly and for their potential impacts…
We compute the shear viscosity, $\eta$, at general temperatures $T$, in a BCS-BEC crossover scheme which is demonstrably consistent with conservation laws. The study of $\eta$ is important because it constrains microscopic theories by…
Using the nuclear symmetry energy that has been recently constrained by the isospin diffusion data in intermediate-energy heavy ion collisions, we have studied the transition density and pressure at the inner edge of neutron star crusts,…
We extract the specific shear viscosity $\eta/s$ of nuclear matter for various temperatures and chemical potentials in the hadronic phase using data taken in high energy nuclear collisions. We use a blastwave parameterization of the final…
We have calculated the temperature dependence of shear $\eta$ and bulk $\zeta$ viscosities of quark matter due to quark-meson fluctuations. The quark thermal width originating from quantum fluctuations of quark-$\pi$ and quark-$\sigma$…
It is well-known that r-mode oscillations of rotating neutron stars may be unstable with respect to the gravitational wave emission. It is highly unlikely to observe a neutron star with the parameters within the instability window, a domain…
The $\eta$-nucleon ($\eta$N) interactions are deduced from the heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory up to the next-to-leading-order terms. Combining the relativistic mean-field theory for nucleon system, we have studied the in-medium…
Superfluidity of $\Lambda$ and $\Sigma^-$ admixed in neutron star (NS) cores is investigated realistically for hyperon ($Y$)-mixed NS models obtained using a $G$-matrix-based effective interaction approach. Numerical results for the…
We have derived a set of equations to describe the thermal evolution of a neutron star which undergoes small-amplitude radial pulsations. We have taken into account, in the frame of the General Theory of Relativity, the pulsation damping…
A theoretical framework for the calculation of shear and bulk viscosities of hadronic matter at finite temperature is presented. The framework is based on the quasi-particle picture. It allows for an arbitrary number of hadron species with…
We systematically examine the crustal torsional oscillations as varying the stellar mass and radius, where we take into account the effect of electron screening due to the inhomogeneity of electron distribution. In the examinations, we…
We investigate the damping of neutron star r-modes due to the presence of a viscous boundary (Ekman) layer at the interface between the crust and the core. Our study is motivated by the possibility that the gravitational-wave driven…
The shear viscosity tensor of the A_1-phase of superfluid 3He is calculated at low temperatures and melting pressure, by using Boltzmann equation approach. The two normal and superfluid components take part in elements of the shear…
We develop a density-dependent quark mean-field (DDQMF) model to study the properties of nuclear matter and neutron stars, where the coupling strength between $\sigma$ meson and nucleon is generated by the degree of freedom of quarks, while…
We review the main neutrino emission mechanisms in neutron star crusts and cores. Among them are the well-known reactions such as the electron-positron annihilation, plasmon decay, neutrino bremsstrahlung of electrons colliding with atomic…
Torsional (shear) oscillations of neutron stars may have been observed in quasiperiodic oscillations of Magnetar Giant Flares. The frequencies of these modes depend on the shear modulus of neutron star crust. We calculate the shear modulus…
