Neutron stars are some of the densest manifestations of massive objects in the universe.
They are ideal astrophysical laboratories for testing theories of dense matter physics and …

We investigate how current and proposed observations of neutron stars can lead to an
understanding of the state of their interiors and the key unknowns: the typical neutron star radius …

The relationship between the maximum neutron-star mass and observable parameters of the
equation of state is explored. In particular, the roles of the nuclear incompressibility and the …

We investigate the structure of neutron stars shortly after they are born, when the entropy per
baryon is of order 1 or 2 and neutrinos are trapped on dynamical timescales. We find that …

Background Exercise capacity is known to be an important prognostic factor in patients with
cardiovascular disease, but it is uncertain whether it predicts mortality equally well among …

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 …

Objectives : The goal of this study was to validate the prognostic value of the drop in heart
rate (HR) after exercise, compare it to other test responses, evaluate its diagnostic value and …

The equilibration of hot hadronic matter is studied in the framework of relativistic kinetic theory.
Various non-equilibrium properties of a mixture comprised of pions, kaons and nucleons …

The roles of isospin asymmetry in nuclei and neutron stars are investigated using a range of
potential and field-theoretical models of nucleonic matter. The parameters of these models …

We show that the direct URCA process can occur in neutron stars if the proton concentration
exceeds some critical value in the range 11–15%. The proton concentration, which is …
