Neutron Star Observations and the Equation of State
This talk reviews limits to the properties of neutron stars established from physical considerations such as causality and stability. In addition, it summarizes recent attempts to determine realistic ...

Exploring the Physics of Dense Matter with Neutron Star Transients
Many accreting neutron stars do so intermittently; that is, the accretion ceases for long quiescent intervals. During the accretion outburst, reactions are induced in the crust by the continual accumu...

Oneof the key ingredients to understand the properties of neutronsstars¹ (NS) is the equation of state at finite densitiesfar beyond nuclear saturation. Investigating the phase structure of quarkmatter that might be realized in the core of NSinspires theory and observation. We discuss recent results of ourwork to point out our view on challenges and possibilitiesin this evolving field by means of a few examples. ©2009 American Institute of Physics
