Abstract The $\Xi$-nuclear potential is investigated in the quark mean-field (QMF) model based on recent results of the $\Xi^-+^{14}\rm{N}$ ($_{\Xi^-}^{15}\rm{C}$) system. The experimental data on the binding energy of $1p$-state $\Xi^-$ hyperon in $_{\Xi^-}^{15}\rm{C}$ hypernuclei in KISO, IBUKI, E07-T011, E176-14-03-35 events are merged as $B_{\Xi^-}(1p)=1.14\pm0.11$ MeV. With this constraint, the coupling strengths between the $\omega$ vector meson and $\Xi$ hyperon are fixed in three QMF parameter sets. At the same time, the $\Xi^-$ binding energy of $1s$ state in $_{\Xi^-}^{15}\rm{C}$ is predicted as $B_{\Xi^-}(1s)=5.66\pm0.38$ MeV with the same interactions, completely consistent with the data from the KINKA and IRRAWADDY events. Finally, the $\Xi$-nuclear potential is calculated in the symmetric nuclear matter in the framework of QMF models. It is $U_{\Xi }=-11.96\pm 0.85$ MeV at nuclear saturation density, which will be essential to determine the onset density of $\Xi$ hyperon in neutron star.

Resonance Coupling

In the context of a relativistic mean field theory the delta-resonance matter formation in a highly compressed nuclear medium is investigated. For a given set of nucleon–meson coupling constants, the delta-resonance formation is studied by changing the delta-meson coupling constants. The effect on the equation of state and on the delta-resonance population with respect to changes in the delta-resonance coupling constants values is discussed for very asymmetric and quasi-symmetric nuclear matter, as an extension of works restricted to the symmetric nuclear matter treatment.5,6

Pairing Correlations

The properties of pairing correlations in symmetric nuclear matter are studied in the relativistic mean field (RMF) theory with the effective interaction, PK1. Considering the well-known problem that the pairing gap at the Fermi surface calculated with RMF effective interactions is three times larger than that with the Gogny force, an effective factor in the particle–particle channel is introduced. For the RMF calculation with PK1, an effective factor of 0.76 gives a maximum pairing gap of 3.2 MeV at a Fermi momentum of 0.9 fm-1, which is consistent with the result with the Gogny force.

The effects of the presence of weakly interacting light boson (WILB) in neutron star matter have been revisited. Direct checking based on the experimental range of symmetric nuclear matter binding energy1 and the fact that the presence of this boson should give no observed effect on the crust properties of neutron star matter, shows that the characteristic scale of WILB [Formula: see text] should be ≤2 GeV-2. The recent observational data with significant low neutron stars radii2 and the recent largest pulsar which has been precisely measured, i.e. J1903+0327 (Ref. 3) indicate that in-medium modification of WILB mass in neutron stars cannot be neglected.

Aims. We report a new microscopic equation of state (EOS) of dense symmetric nuclear matter, pure neutron matter, and asymmetric and β-stable nuclear matter at zero temperature using recent realistic two-body and three-body nuclear interactions derived in the framework of chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) and including the Δ(1232) isobar intermediate state. This EOS is provided in tabular form and in parametrized form ready for use in numerical general relativity simulations of binary neutron star merging. Here we use our new EOS for β-stable nuclear matter to compute various structural properties of non-rotating neutron stars. Methods. The EOS is derived using the Brueckner–Bethe–Goldstone quantum many-body theory in the Brueckner–Hartree–Fock approximation. Neutron star properties are next computed solving numerically the Tolman–Oppenheimer–Volkov structure equations. Results. Our EOS models are able to reproduce the empirical saturation point of symmetric nuclear matter, the symmetry energy Esym, and its slope parameter L at the empirical saturation density n0. In addition, our EOS models are compatible with experimental data from collisions between heavy nuclei at energies ranging from a few tens of MeV up to several hundreds of MeV per nucleon. These experiments provide a selective test for constraining the nuclear EOS up to ~4n0. Our EOS models are consistent with present measured neutron star masses and particularly with the mass M = 2.01 ± 0.04 M⊙ of the neutron stars in PSR J0348+0432.

In this paper we use a polytropic approximation to the equation of state for the interior of neutrons stars, described by relativistic hadronic mean field models. In this approximation, it is possible to obtain analytic expressions for the sound velocity and the incompressibility at the star center. We found a correlation between these quantities and the star mass. Using two well-known parametrizations of the nonlinear Walecka model for nuclear matter composed only of protons, neutrons and electron in β equilibrium, we obtain for a star mass of 1.43 M⊙ a central incompressibility Kc = (3000±100), around ten times the nuclear matter incompressibility, and a central sound velocity (v/c)2 ~ 0.3.

Background: We analyze several constraints on the nuclear equation of state (EOS) currently available from neutron star (NS) observations and laboratory experiments and study the existence of possible correlations among properties of nuclear matter at saturation density with NS observables. Methods: We use a set of different models that include several phenomenological EOSs based on Skyrme and relativistic mean field models as well as microscopic calculations based on different many-body approaches, i.e., the (Dirac–)Brueckner–Hartree–Fock theories, Quantum Monte Carlo techniques, and the variational method. Results: We find that almost all the models considered are compatible with the laboratory constraints of the nuclear matter properties as well as with the largest NS mass observed up to now, 2.14−0.09+0.10M⊙ for the object PSR J0740+6620, and with the upper limit of the maximum mass of about 2.3–2.5M⊙ deduced from the analysis of the GW170817 NS merger event. Conclusion: Our study shows that whereas no correlation exists between the tidal deformability and the value of the nuclear symmetry energy at saturation for any value of the NS mass, very weak correlations seem to exist with the derivative of the nuclear symmetry energy and with the nuclear incompressibility.

Microscopic optical potentials for low-energy proton reactions have been obtained by folding density dependent M3Y (DDM3Y) interaction derived from nuclear matter calculation with densities from mean field approach to study astrophysically important proton rich nuclei in mass 100–120 region. We compare [Formula: see text] factors for low-energy [Formula: see text] reactions with available experimental data and further calculate astrophysical reaction rates for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] reactions. Again, we choose some nonlinear R3Y (NR3Y) interactions from relativistic mean field (RMF) calculation and folded them with corresponding RMF densities to reproduce experimental [Formula: see text]-factor values in this mass region. Finally, the effect of nonlinearity on our result is discussed.

Walecka Model

Abstract The possibility that nuclear matter at a density relevant to the interior of massive neutron stars may be a quarkynoic matter has attracted considerable recent interest. In this work, we construct a phenomenological model to describe the quarkyonic matter, that would allow quantitative calculations of its various properties within a well-defined field theoretical framework. This is implemented by synthesizing the Walecka model together with the quark-meson model, where both quark and nucleon degrees of freedom are present based on the quarkyonic scenario. With this model we compute at mean-field level the thermodynamic properties of the symmetric nuclear matter and calibrate model parameters through well-known nuclear physics measurements. We find this model gives a very good description of the symmetric nuclear matter from moderate to high baryon density and demonstrates a continuous transition from nucleon-dominance to quark-dominance for the system.
