Neutron Star Merger Seen and Heard For
O ver thousands of years, astronomy has evolved from hand-drawn maps of the night sky to breathtaking telescope images of the far-away cosmos. Yet despite this advance in technology, most of our information about the Universe has come from photon messengers. This changed in September 2015 with the detection of gravitational waves from a black hole merger at the Laser Interferometer Gravitationa...
متن کاملPulsar Constraints on Neutron Star Structure and Equation of State
The sudden spin jumps, or glitches, commonly seen in isolated neutron stars are thought to represent angular momentum transfer between the crust and the liquid interior [1]. In this picture, as a neutron star’s crust spins down under magnetic torque, differential rotation develops between the stellar crust and a portion of the liquid interior. The more rapidly rotating component then acts as an...
متن کاملNeutron Star Structure and the Equation of State
The structure of neutron stars is considered from theoretical and observational perspectives. We demonstrate an important aspect of neutron star structure: the neutron star radius is primarily determined by the behavior of the pressure of matter in the vicinity of nuclear matter equilibrium density. In the event that extreme softening does not occur at these densities, the radius is virtually i...
متن کاملConstraining the neutron star equation of state using XMM - Newton
We have identified three possible ways in which future XMM-Newton observations can provide significant constraints on the equation of state of neutron stars. First, using a long observation of the neutron star X-ray transient Cen X–4 in quiescence one can use the RGS spectrum to constrain the interstellar extinction to the source. This removes this parameter from the X-ray spectral fitting of t...
متن کاملNeutron Star Masses, Radii and Equation of State
We are closing in on neutron stars both observationally and theoretically. Observationally, a number of masses (M) and a few radii (R) have been measured as well as a number of other properties. Theoretically, modern equation of states (EOS) are more reliable due to precision measurements of nucleon-nucleon interactions, detailed calculations of binding energies of light nuclei and nuclear matt...
