Neutron Star Core Matter Properties Constrained by Observations
Analysis
Key Takeaways
- •Observational data from NICER and GW detections are used to constrain the equation of state (EoS) of matter in neutron star cores.
- •The study focuses on data from PSR J0614-3329.
- •Bayesian inference is employed to analyze the data.
- •The results suggest a smoother EoS, potentially delaying phase transitions.
- •Observational bounds are effective in constraining the low-density region of the EoS.
“The Bayesian analysis demonstrates that the observational bounds are effective in significantly constraining the low-density region of the equation of state.”
