Hypernuclear Physics for Neutron Stars
نویسنده
چکیده
The role of hypernuclear physics for the physics of neutron stars is delineated. Hypernuclear potentials in dense matter control the hyperon composition of dense neutron star matter. The three-body interactions of nucleons and hyperons determine the stiffness of the neutron star equation of state and thereby the maximum neutron star mass. Two-body hyperon-nucleon and hyperon-hyperon interactions give rise to hyperon pairing which exponentially suppresses cooling of neutron stars via the direct hyperon URCA processes. Non-mesonic weak reactions with hyperons in dense neutron star matter govern the gravitational wave emissions due to the r-mode instability of rotating neutron stars.

متن کاملSpin and Isospin Asymmetry, Equation of State and Neutron Stars
In the present work, we have obtained the equation of state for neutron star matter considering the in uence of the ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic spin state. We have also investigated the structure of neutron stars. According to our results, the spin asymmetry stiens the equation of state and leads to high mass for the neutron star.
متن کاملDifferent Magnetic Field Distributions in Deformed Neutron Stars
In this work, we review the formalism which would allow us to model magnetically deformed neutron stars. We study the effect of different magnetic field configurations on the equation of state (EoS) and the structure of such stars. For this aim, the EoS of magnetars is acquired by using the lowest order constraint variational (LOCV) method and employing the AV18 potential....
متن کاملProduction of hypernuclei in heavy-ion collisions
Hypernuclear physics is a useful tool to investigate the properties of the hyperon-nucleon (Y N ) and the hyperonhyperon (Y Y ) interaction [1]. The knowledge of the strangeness sector of the hadronic equation of state might be important for nuclear astrophysics, e.g., for the properties of neutron stars [2], and in exploring exotic states of finite nuclei, e.g., neutron-rich strange nuclei and...
متن کاملHyperon-hyperon interactions with the Nijmegen ESC08 model
We discuss the properties of the hyperon-hyperon interactions in the recent Nijmegen ESC08 potential, in particular the importance of the coupled-channel structure and related existence of bound states. Brueckner-Hartree-Fock calculations of hypernuclear matter employing these interactions are presented and the structure of hyperon (neutron) stars within this approach is computed. Low maximum m...
