We calculate moment of inertia of neutron star with different exotic constituents such as hyperons and antikaon condensates and study its variation with mass and spin frequency. The sets of equation-of-state (EoS), generated within the framework of relativistic mean field model with density-dependent couplings are adopted for the purpose. We follow the quasi-stationary evolution of rotating stars along the constant rest mass sequences, that varies considerably with different constituents in the EoS. We also explore the universal relations associated with some of the normalized properties, such as critical mass and moment of inertia for specific EoS or as a matter of fact constituents of the dense matter. Deviations in the universal relations for moment of inertia are observed at higher compactness. This study presents important results concerning the properties of neutron stars, that could be observationally verified in the near future using Square Kilometer Array telescope.

We study the star matter properties for Hybrid equation of state (EoS) by varying the bag constant. We use the effective field theory motivated relativistic mean field model (E-RMF) for hadron phase with recently reported FSUGarnet, G3 and IOPB-I parameter sets. The results of NL3 and NL3[Formula: see text] sets are also shown for comparison. The simple MIT bag model is applied for the quark phase to construct the hybrid EoS. The hybrid neutron star mass and radius are calculated by varying with [Formula: see text] to constrain the [Formula: see text] values. It is found that [Formula: see text]–160[Formula: see text]MeV is suitable for explaining the quark matter in neutron stars.

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.

Abstract The radii and tidal deformabilities of neutron stars are investigated in the framework of the relativistic mean-field (RMF) model with different density-dependent behaviors of symmetry energy. To study the effects of symmetry energy on the properties of neutron stars, $\omega$ meson and $\rho$ meson coupling terms are included in a popular RMF Lagrangian, i.e., the TM1 parameter set, which is adopted for the widely used supernova equation of state (EoS) table. The coupling constants relevant to the vector–isovector meson, $\rho$, are refitted by a fixed symmetry energy at subsaturation density and its slope at saturation density, while other coupling constants remain the same as the original ones in TM1 so as to update the supernova EoS table. The radius and mass of maximum neutron stars are not so sensitive to the symmetry energy in these family TM1 parameterizations. However, the radii in the intermediate-mass region are strongly correlated with the slope of symmetry energy. Furthermore, the dimensionless tidal deformabilities of neutron stars are also calculated within the associated Love number, which is related to the quadrupole deformation of the star in a static external tidal field and can be extracted from the observation of a gravitational wave generated by a binary star merger. We find that its value at $1.4 \mathrm{M}_\odot$ has a linear correlation to the slope of symmetry energy, unlike that previously studied. With the latest constraints of tidal deformabilities from the GW170817 event, the slope of symmetry energy at nuclear saturation density should be smaller than $60$ MeV in the family TM1 parameterizations. This fact supports the usage of a lower symmetry energy slope for the updated supernova EoS, which is applicable to simulations of neutron star mergers. Furthermore, an analogous analysis is also done within the family IUFSU parameter sets. It is found that the correlations between the symmetry energy slope with the radius and tidal deformability at $1.4 \mathrm{M}_\odot$ have very similar linear relations in these RMF models.

The role of scalar boson exchange as a mediator of the fermionic dark particle interaction and the mass of dark particle on the bulk properties of fermionic dark stars including their moment of inertia and tidal deformability are studied. We have found that the role of the attractive nature of the scalar boson exchange and the fermionic dark particle mass can control the stiffness of the fermionic dark star equation-of-state. By increasing the strength of scalar boson coupling, the fermionic dark star becomes more compact. As a consequence, if scalar boson exchange contribution is included the compactness of a dark star can exceed [Formula: see text] = 0.22. We also compare the fermionic dark stars moment of inertia and tidal deformability to those of neutron stars (with and without hyperons in neutron star core) predicted by relativistic mean field model. It is evident that the properties of both types of stars are quite different. We also have found that the universal I-Love relation in fermionic dark stars is not affected by scalar boson exchange contribution and the fermionic dark particle mass. Possible observations of fermionic dark stars are also discussed.

We study the effects of temperature in hadron dense matter within a generalized relativistic mean field approach based on the naturalness of the coupling constants of the theory. The Lagrangian density of our formulation contains nonlinear self-couplings of the σ meson field coupled to baryons and to the ω and ϱ meson fields. Moreover, we use the Sommerfeld and Hartle approximations to extend our approach to the finite temperature domain and slow rotational scenario. Both Sommerfeld and Hartle approximation allows a drastic simplification of computational work while improving the capability of theoretical analysis of the role of temperature and rotation on properties of protoneutron stars. Our predictions indicate that in the slow rotating regimen, neutron stars density profiles as well as the maximum mass and the inertial moment of these stellar objects are well approximated by the zero temperature approximation.

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.
