I summarize some constraints on the physics of neutron stars arising from X-ray observations of the surfaces of neutron stars, focusing on using models of low-magnetic-field neutron star atmospheres to interpret their X-ray spectra. I…
Neutron stars in low-mass binary systems are subject to accretion. The common assumption in studying the properties of the neutron star crust is the fully accreted crust approximation. However, observations of some X-ray transient sources…
A general overview of the main physical processes driving the cooling of an isolated neutron star is presented. Among the most important ones are the various possible neutrino emission processes and the occurrence of baryon pairing. Special…
We present the recent developments in the studies of the structure of hadron resonances, focusing on the compositeness in terms of the hadronic degrees of freedom. We discuss the model dependence of the compositeness, and show that the…
The available data on neutron scattering were analyzed to constrain a hypothetical new short-range interaction. We show that these constraints are several orders of magnitude better than those usually cited in the range between 1 pm and 5…
We propose a two-path vortex interferometry experiment based on the Aharonov-Casher effect for detecting the non-Abelian nature of vortices in a chiral p-wave superconductor. The effect is based on observing vortex interference patterns…
We study the properties of singular values of mixing matrices embedded within an experimentally determined interval matrix. We argue that any physically admissible mixing matrix needs to have the property of being a contraction. This…
A model based on the hadronic fluctuations of the real photon is developed to describe the total photonucleon and photonuclear cross sections in the energy region above the nucleon resonances. The hadronic spectral function of the photon is…
Experimental results on hadronic structures are discussed in view of our physics understanding. Achievements and challenges are noted.
The equation of state and the properties of neutron stars are studied for a phase transition to a charged kaon condensate. We study the mixed phase by using Gibbs condition with comparison to the hitherto applied Maxwell construction.…
We investigate theoretical and observational constraints on the mass-radius relations for neutron stars. For that purpose we consider the model of neutron stars taking into considerations strong, weak, electromagnetic and gravitational…
The idea of confinement states that in certain systems constituent particles can be discerned only indirectly being bound by an interaction whose strength increases with increasing particle separation. Though the most famous example is the…
The Cosmic Neutrino Background (C$\nu$B) constitutes the last observable prediction of the standard cosmological model, which has yet to be detected directly. In this work, we show how the coherent scattering of neutrinos off dense neutron…
We discuss the Aharonov--Bohm effect in three and four dimensional non--compact lattice Abelian Higgs model. We show analytically that this effect leads to the long--range Coulomb interaction of the charged particles, which is confining in…
We bring attention to the fact that in order to understand existing data on neutrino oscillations, and to design future experiments, it is imperative to appreciate the role of quantum entanglement. Once this is accounted for, the resulting…
Observations of accreting neutron stars are widely used to constrain the microphysical properties of superdense matter. A key ingredient in this analysis is the heating associated with nuclear reactions in the outer layers of the neutron…
We propose an interpolating equation of state that satisfies phenomenologically established boundary conditions in two extreme regimes at high temperature and low baryon density and at low temperature and high baryon density. We confirm…
The existence of quark matter inside the cores of heavy neutron stars is a possibility which can be probed with modern astrophysical observations. We use an (axial)vector meson extended quark-meson model to describe quark matter in the core…
The interaction due to the exchange of massless neutrinos between neutrons is a long-range force. Border effects on this multibody exchange inside a dense core are studied and computed analytically in 1 + 1 dimensions. We demonstrate in…
An explicit quark model, based on a mean field description of non-overlapping nucleon bags bound by the self-consistent exchange of $\sigma$, $\omega$ and $\rho$ mesons, is used to investigate the properties of both nuclear and neutron…
