Spontaneous scalarization

DD Doneva, FM Ramazanoğlu, HO Silva… - Reviews of Modern …, 2024 - APS
Scalarization is a mechanism that endows strongly self-gravitating bodies, such as neutron
stars and black holes, with a scalar-field configuration. It resembles a phase transition in that …

The radius of PSR J0740+ 6620 from NICER and XMM-Newton data

MC Miller, FK Lamb, AJ Dittmann… - The Astrophysical …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
PSR J0740+ 6620 has a gravitational mass of 2.08±0.07 M⊙, which is the highest reliably
