Despite their long history and astrophysical importance, some of the key properties of
neutron stars are still uncertain. The extreme conditions encountered in their interiors …

We review the physics of hyperons and Δ-resonances in dense matter in compact stars. The
covariant density functional approach to the equation of state and composition of dense …

We present a systematic numerical relativity study of the mass ejection and the associated
electromagnetic transients and nucleosynthesis from binary neutron star (NS) mergers. We …

We demonstrate in a general and analytic way how high-density information about the
equation of state (EOS) of strongly interacting matter obtained using perturbative quantum …

Observations of neutron stars, whether in binaries or in isolation, provide information about
the internal structure of the most extreme material objects in the Universe. In this work, we …

We identify an observable imprint of a first-order hadron-quark phase transition at
supranuclear densities on the gravitational-wave (GW) emission of neutron-star mergers …

Recent rapid progress in neutron-star (NS) observations offers great potential to constrain
the properties of strongly interacting matter under the most extreme conditions. In order to …

The understanding of stellar structure represents the crossroads of our theories of the
nuclear force and the gravitational interaction under the most extreme conditions observably …

On 17 August 2017, the LIGO and Virgo observatories made the first direct detection of
gravitational waves from the coalescence of a neutron star binary system. The detection of …

The correlation of the tidal polarizabilities Λ 1-Λ 2 for GW170817 is predicted by combining
dense-matter equations of state (EOSs) that satisfy nuclear physics constraints with the chirp …
