Understanding the equation of state (EOS) of neutron stars (NSs) is a fundamental challenge in astrophysics and nuclear physics. A first-order phase transition (FOPT) at high densities could lead to the formation of a quark core,…

The possible occurrence of a first-order hadron-quark phase transition (FOPT) in neutron-star interiors remains an open question. Whether such a transition can be directly tested with improved observations is a key challenge. Here, we…

The potential hadron-to-quark phase transition in neutron stars has not been fully understood as the property of cold, dense, and strongly interacting matter cannot be theoretically described by the first-principle perturbative…

I explore various scenarios for the phase transition within neutron-star matter. I do so by generating large model-agnostic ensemble using Gaussian processes, both with and without explicit inclusion of first-order phase transitions…

We study current bounds on strong first-order phase transitions (PTs) along the equation of state (EOS) of dense strongly interacting matter in neutron stars, under the simplifying assumption that on either side of the PT the EOS can be…

We investigate the properties of nuclear matter at the first-order phase transitions (FOPT) such as liquid-gas phase transition, kaon condensation, and hadron-quark phase transition. As a general feature of the FOPT of matter consisting of…

We investigate the non-uniform structures and the equation of state (EOS) of nuclear matter in the context of the first-order phase transitions (FOPT) such as liquid-gas phase transition, kaon condensation, and hadron-quark phase…

The last few years have seen tremendous progress in the observation of the global properties of neutron stars (NSs), e.g. masses, radii and tidal deformabilities. Such properties provide information about possible phase transitions in the…

We study the equation of state (EOS) of kaon-condensed matter including the effects of temperature and trapped neutrinos. It is found that the order of the phase transition to a kaon-condensed phase, and whether or not Gibbs' rules for…

We develop an analytic method of inverting the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff (TOV) relations to high accuracy. In principle, a specified $\mathcal{E}\mbox{-}P$ relation gives a unique $M\mbox{-}R$ relation, and vice-versa. Our method is…

This study investigates the first-order phase transition within neutron stars, leveraging the deep neural network (DNN) framework alongside contemporary astronomical measurements. The equation of state (EOS) for neutron stars is delineated…

Neutron stars are regarded as natural laboratories for the study of dense strong interaction matter. The equation of state (EoS) of dense matter computed in flat spacetime is used to predict the structure of neutron stars by solving the…

We study phase-transition-like behavior in neutron stars using a simplified, piecewise equation of state that couples a modified van der Waals-type core to a polytropic crust. The model remains analytically tractable while allowing for…

We construct posterior distributions of the equation of state (EoS) for matter beyond the inner crust of neutron stars by incorporating finite nuclei (FN) constraints within relativistic mean field models. These constraints are implemented…

Neutron stars explore matter at the highest densities in the universe such that their inner cores might undergo a phase transition from hadronic to exotic phases, e.g., quark matter. Such a transition could be associated with non-trivial…

To model the structure of neutron stars (NSs) theoretically,it is common to consider layers with different density regimes. Matching the equation of state (EoS) for the crust and core and obtaining a suitable description of these extreme…

A novel equation of state with the surface tension induced by particles' interactions was generalized to describe the properties of the neutron stars (NSs). In this equation the interaction between particles occurs via the hard core…

In this work, we revisit several thin-crust approximations presented in the literature and compare them with the exact solutions of the Tolman--Oppenheimer--Volkoff (TOV) equations. In addition, we employ three different equations of state…

The equation of state (EOS) for neutron star (NS) crusts is studied in the Thomas-Fermi (TF) approximation using the EOS for uniform nuclear matter obtained by the variational method with the realistic nuclear Hamiltonian. The parameters…
