We study dense hadronic matter in a generalized relativistic mean field approach which contains nonlinear couplings of the σ, ω, ϱ, δ fields and compare its predictions for properties of neutron stars with the corresponding results from different models found in the literature. Our predictions indicate a substantial modification in static global properties of nuclear matter and neutron stars with the inclusion of the δ meson into the formalism.

Based on non-crossed, crossed and correlated ππ exchanges with irreducible N, Δ intermediate states, we predict an isovector component for the σ meson. We study dense hadronic matter in a generalized relativistic mean field approach with nonlinear self-couplings of the I=0,1 components of the scalar field and compare its predictions for neutron star properties with results from different models found in the literature.

We have predicted (contribution to this issue) an isovector component of the light scalar meson sector by using the chiral symmetry transformation formalism. On the basis of this result, we study dense hadronic matter in a generalized relativistic mean field approach with σ, ω and ρ mesons as well as nonlinear self-couplings of the I = 1 component of a light scalar meson field and compare its predictions for neutron star properties with results from different models for nuclear matter found in the literature.

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.

For the nuclear many body problem at high densities, formulated in the framework of a relativistic mean-field theory, we investigate in detail the compression modulus of nuclear matter as a function of the effective nucleon mass. We include consistently in our modelling chemical equilibrium as well as baryon number and electric charge conservation and investigate properties of neutron stars. Among other predictions we focus on the dependence of the maximum mass of a sequence of neutron stars as a function of the compression modulus and the nucleon effective mass.

We discuss the constraints on the equation of state (EOS) of neutron star matter obtained by the data analysis of the neutron star-neutron star merger in the event GW170807. To this scope, we consider two recent microscopic EOS models computed starting from two-body and three-body nuclear interactions derived using chiral perturbation theory. For comparison, we also use three representative phenomenological EOS models derived within the relativistic mean field approach. For each model, we determine the β -stable EOS and then the corresponding neutron star structure by solving the equations of hydrostatic equilibrium in general relativity. In addition, we calculate the tidal deformability parameters for the two neutron stars and discuss the results of our calculations in connection with the constraints obtained from the gravitational wave signal in GW170817. We find that the tidal deformabilities and radii for the binary’s component neutron stars in GW170817, calculated using a recent microscopic EOS model proposed by the present authors, are in very good agreement with those derived by gravitational waves data.

High density hadronic matter is studied in a generalized relativistic multi-baryon Lagrangian density mean field approach which contains nonlinear couplings of the σ, ω, ϱ fields. We compare the predictions of our model with estimates obtained within a phenomenological naive dimensional analysis based on the naturalness of the coefficients of the theory. Upon adjusting the model parameters to describe bulk static properties of ordinary nuclear matter, we show that our approach represents a natural modelling of nuclear matter under the extreme conditions of density as the ones found in the interior of neutron stars. Moreover, we show that naturalness play a major role in effective field theory and, in combination with experiment, could represent a relevant criterium to select a model among others in the description of global static properties of neutron stars.

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 investigate static properties of nuclear and neutron star matter by using a relativistic mean field theory with parametrized couplings. With a suitable choice of mathematical parameters, the couplings allow one to reproduce results of current quantum hadrodynamics models. For other parametrizations, a better description of bulk properties of nuclear matter is obtained. The formalism is extended to include hyperon and lepton degrees of freedom, and an analysis on the effects of the phenomenological couplings in the fermion populations and mass of neutron stars is performed. The results show a strong similarity between the predictions of ZM-like models and those with exponential couplings. We have observed in particular an extreme sensibility of the predictions of these theories on the specific choice of the values of the binding energy of nuclear matter and saturation density. Additionally, the role of the very intense scalar meson mean field found in the interior of neutron stars in the screening of the nucleon mass is discussed.
