We demonstrate in a general and analytic way how high-density information about the
equation of state (EOS) of strongly interacting matter obtained using perturbative quantum …

Recent rapid progress in neutron-star (NS) observations offers great potential to constrain
the properties of strongly interacting matter under the most extreme conditions. In order to …

Analyses that connect observations of neutron stars with nuclear-matter properties can rely
on equation-of-state insensitive relations. We show that the slope of the binary Love …

The speed of sound of the matter within neutron stars may contain nonsmooth structure
related to first-or higher-order phase transitions. Here we investigate what are the …

From the observation of both heavy neutron stars and light ones with small radii, one
anticipates a steep rise in the speed of sound of nuclear matter as a function of baryon …

The extraction of the nuclear matter properties from neutron star (NS) observations is
nowadays an important issue, in particular, the properties that characterize the symmetry …

Measurements of neutron star masses, radii, and tidal deformability have direct connections
to nuclear physics via the equation of state (EoS), which for the cold, catalyzed matter in …

The low density nuclear matter equation of state is strongly constrained by nuclear
properties; however, for constraining the high density equation of state it is necessary to …

We analyze the implications of information about local derivatives from the mass-radius
diagram in neutron star matter. It is expected that the next generation of gravitational wave …

Neutron stars are the densest objects in the Universe, with M∼ 1.4 M⊙ and R∼ 12 km, and
the equation of state associated to their internal composition is still unknown. The extreme …
