AbstractDue to their compactness, neutron stars are the best study matter in high density and strong-field gravity. Hartle and Thorne have proposed a good approximation or perturbation procedure within general relativity for slowly rotating relativistic stars by assuming the matter inside the stars is an ideal isotropic fluid. This study extends the analytical Hartle–Thorne formalism for slowly rotating neutron stars, including the possibility that the neutron star pressure can be anisotropic. We study the impact of neutron stars’ anisotropy pressure on mass correction and deformation numerically. For the anisotropic model, we use the Bowers-Liang model. For the equation of state of neutron stars, we use a relativistic mean-field BSP parameter set with the hyperons, and for the crust equation of state, we use the one of Miyatsu et al. We have found that the mass of neutron stars increases but the radius decreases by increasing $$\lambda _{BL}$$ λ BL value. Therefore, the NS compactness increases when $$\lambda _{BL}$$ λ BL becomes larger. This fact leads to a condition in which NS is getting harder to deformed when the $$\lambda _{BL}$$ λ BL increased.

The hyperon density dependence (YDD) of hyperon-nucleon interactions are studied in the relativistic mean field (RMF) model and their influences on the properties of neutron stars are studied. The extended RMF considered the interior quarks coordinates of hyperon and bring a hyperon density dependent factor, f(ρY), to the meson-hyperon coupling vertexes. The hyperon density dependence of YN interaction affect the properties of neutron stars only after the corresponding hyperon appears. Then, the influences of the density dependence factors are almost ignored at low densities, which are clear at high densities. The compositions and properties of neutron stars are studied with and without the YDD of YN interactions for the different Σ--nucleus effective potentials, (30, 0, -30)MeV. The calculated results indicated that the YDD of YN interaction soften the equation of state of neutron stars at high densities.

We investigate the effect of Δ-resonance interaction strength on the equation of state of asymmetric hadronic matter and neutron stars structure. We discuss Δ-matter formation at high densities in the context of a relativistic mean field theory. We show that the attractive nature of the Δ-baryon interaction can induce a phase transition accompanying Δ-matter formation, at values of densities presumably existing in central regions of neutron stars. The possibility of a rich Δ-resonance neutron star is presented using the proposed equation of state.

We study the hadron-quark phase transition and antikaon condensation which may occur in the core of massive neutron stars. The relativistic mean field theory is used to describe the hadronic phase, while the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model is adopted for the quark phase. We find that the hadron-quark phase transition is very sensitive to the models used. The appearance of deconfined quark matter and antikaon condensation can soften the equation of state at high density and lower the maximum mass of neutron stars.

Abstract Motivated by a recent report by Biwas and Bose (Phys Rev D 99:104002, 2019) that the observations of GW170817 to constrain the extent of pressure anisotropy in neutron stars within Bower–Liang anisotropic model, we systematically study the effects of anisotropic pressure on properties of the neutron stars with hyperons. The equation of state is calculated using the relativistic mean-field model with a BSP parameter set to determine nucleonic coupling constants and by using SU(6) and hyperon potential depths to determine hyperonic coupling constants. We investigate three models of anisotropic pressure known in literature namely Bowers and Liang (Astrophys J 88:657, 1974), Horvat et al. (Class Quant Grav 28:025009, 2011), and Cosenza et al. (J Math Phys (NY) 22:118, 1981). The reliability of the equation of state used is checked by comparing the parameters of the corresponding EOS to recent experimental data. The mass–radius, moment of inertia, and tidal deformability results of Bowers–Liang, Horvat et al., and Cosenza et al. anisotropic models are compared to the corresponding recent results extracted from the analysis of some NS observation data. We have found that the radii predicted by anisotropic NS are sensitive to the anisotropic model used and the results obtained by using the model proposed by Horvat et al. with anisotropic free parameter $$\varUpsilon ~\approx -$$Υ≈- 1.15 are relative compatible with all taken constraints.

The impact of a δ meson field (the scalar-isovector channel) on asymmetric nuclear matter is studied within relativistic mean-field (RMF) models with both constant and density dependent (DD) nucleon-meson couplings. The Equation of State (EOS) for asymmetric nuclear matter and the neutron star properties by the different models are compared. We find that the δ-field in the constant coupling scheme leads to a larger repulsion in dense neutron-rich matter and to a definite splitting of proton and neutron effective masses, finally influencing the stability of the neutron stars. A broader analysis of possible δ-field effects is achieved considering also density dependent nucleon-meson coupling. A remarkable effect on the relation between mass and radius for the neutron stars is seen, showing a significant reduction of the radius along with a moderate mass reduction due to the increase of the effective δ coupling in high density regions.

ABSTRACT In this work, we study matter in the cores of proto-neutron stars, focusing on the impact of their composition on the stellar structure. We begin by examining the effects of finite temperature (through a fixed entropy per baryon) and lepton fraction on purely nucleonic matter by making use of the DSH (Du, Steiner & Holt) model. We then turn our attention to a relativistic mean-field model containing exotic degrees of freedom, the Chiral Mean Field (CMF) model, again, under the conditions of finite temperature and trapped neutrinos. In the latter, since both hyperons and quarks are found in the cores of large-mass stars, their interplay and the possibility of mixtures of phases is taken into account and analysed. Finally, we discuss how stellar rotation can affect our results.

We present a Bayesian analysis on the equation of state of neutron stars based on a class of relativistic mean field models. The priors on the equation of state are related to the properties of nuclear matter at saturation and the posteriors are obtained through the Bayesian procedure by exploiting recent astrophysical constraints on the mass–radius relations of neutron stars. We find indications of a tension (within the adopted model) between the prior on the nuclear incompressibility and its posterior which in turn seems to suggest a possible phase transition at about twice saturation density to a phase where the nucleon effective mass is strongly reduced. A possible relation with the chiral phase transition in dense matter is also discussed.

The microscopic properties and superfluidity of the inner crust in neutron stars are investigated in the framework of the relativistic mean field(RMF) model and BCS theory. The Wigner-Seitz(W-S) cell of inner crust is composed of neutron-rich nuclei immersed in a sea of dilute, homogeneous neutron gas. The pairing properties of nucleons in the W-S cells are treated in BCS theory with Gogny interaction. In this work, we emphasize on the choice of the boundary conditions in the RMF approach and superfluidity of the inner crust. Three kinds of boundary conditions are suggested. The properties of the W-S cells with the three kinds of boundary conditions are investigated. The neutron density distributions in the RMF and Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov(HFB) models are compared.
