Comparison of Neutron Star Models Using Various EOS

ORAL

Abstract

Several modern equations of state (EOS) for neutron stars can be ignored because they predict a neutron star mass limit lower than observed masses. Also, some EOS mass/radius curves fall far outside the error bounds of observed values and can be ignored as well. These observational constraints narrow down the search for an accurate EOS significantly.
