Early appearance of isobars in neutron stars
A Drago, A Lavagno, G Pagliara, D Pigato - Physical Review C, 2014 - APS
We discuss the formation of Δ isobars in neutron star matter. We show that their threshold
density strictly correlates with the density derivative of the symmetry energy of nuclear …

Can very compact and very massive neutron stars both exist?
A Drago, A Lavagno, G Pagliara - Physical Review D, 2014 - APS
The existence of neutron stars with masses of∼ 2 M⊙ requires a stiff equation of state at
high densities. On the other hand, the necessary appearance also at high densities of new …
