Testing the nature of dark compact objects: a status report

V Cardoso, P Pani - Living Reviews in Relativity, 2019 - Springer
Very compact objects probe extreme gravitational fields and may be the key to understand
outstanding puzzles in fundamental physics. These include the nature of dark matter, the …

Bosonic dark matter in neutron stars and its effect on gravitational wave signal

D Rafiei Karkevandi, S Shakeri, V Sagun, O Ivanytskyi - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
We study an impact of self-interacting bosonic dark matter (DM) on various observable
properties of neutron stars (NSs). The analysis is performed for asymmetric DM with masses …

Confronting strange stars with compact-star observations and new physics

S Yang, C Pi, X Zheng, F Weber - Universe, 2023 - mdpi.com
Strange stars ought to exist in the universe according to the strange quark matter hypothesis,
which states that matter made of roughly equal numbers of up, down, and strange quarks …

Comprehensive study of compact stars with dark matter

MF Barbat, J Schaffner-Bielich, L Tolos - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
We present a comprehensive study of compact stars admixed with nonself-annihilating self-
interacting fermionic dark matter, delineating the dependence on the nuclear equation of …

Long Range Plan: Dense matter theory for heavy-ion collisions and neutron stars

A Lovato, T Dore, RD Pisarski, B Schenke… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2022 - arxiv.org
Since the release of the 2015 Long Range Plan in Nuclear Physics, major events have
occurred that reshaped our understanding of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and nuclear …

Tidal deformability of dark matter admixed neutron stars

KL Leung, M Chu, LM Lin - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
The tidal properties of a neutron star are measurable in the gravitational waves emitted from
inspiraling binary neutron stars, and they have been used to constrain the neutron star …

Dark matter effects on the properties of neutron stars: Compactness and tidal deformability

HM Liu, JB Wei, ZH Li, GF Burgio, HC Das, HJ Schulze - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
We systematically study the observable properties of dark-matter admixed neutron stars with
arbitrary dark-matter fraction, employing a realistic nuclear equation of state in combination …

Stability of rotating scalar boson stars with nonlinear interactions

N Siemonsen, WE East - Physical Review D, 2021 - APS
We study the stability of rotating scalar boson stars, comparing those made from a simple
massive complex scalar (referred to as mini boson stars), to those with several different …

Constraining bosonic asymmetric dark matter with neutron star mass-radius measurements

N Rutherford, G Raaijmakers, C Prescod-Weinstein… - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
Neutron stars can accumulate asymmetric dark matter (ADM) in their interiors, which affects
the neutron star's measurable properties and makes compact objects prime targets to search …

Effects of dark matter on -mode oscillations of neutron stars

S Shirke, BK Pradhan, D Chatterjee, L Sagunski… - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
The effect of dark matter (DM) on f-mode oscillations in DM admixed neutron stars (NSs) is
investigated in a comprehensive analysis with particular attention to the role of the nuclear …
