Neutron stars could contain a mixture of ordinary nuclear matter and dark matter, such that dark matter could influence observable properties of the star, such as its mass and radius. We study these dark matter admixed neutron stars for two choices of dark matter: a free Fermi gas and mirror dark matter. In addition to solving the multi-fluid Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equations for static solutions and presenting mass-radius diagrams, we focus on two computations that are lacking in the literature. The first is a rigorous determination of stability over the whole of parameter space, which we do using two different methods. The first method is based on harmonic time-dependent perturbations to the static solutions and on solving for the radial oscillation frequency. The second method, which is less well-known, conveniently makes use of unperturbed, static solutions only. The second computation is of the radial oscillation frequency, for fundamental modes, over large swaths of parameter space.

  1. Rotating Fermion-Boson Stars in $R$-squared Gravity

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    R-squared gravity enlarges the equilibrium domain of rotating fermion-boson stars and raises static and Keplerian maximum masses relative to GR while remaining compatible with current compact-object constraints.

  2. Supernova Remnants with Mirror Dark Matter and Hyperons

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Mirror dark matter inside proto-neutron stars reduces maximum mass, radius, and tidal deformability while heating the remnant and raising the speed of sound.

  3. A self-consistent Higgs-portal framework for dark matter--admixed neutron stars: Collider-motivated benchmarks meet multimessenger constraints

    astro-ph.HE 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Adding heavy dark matter to neutron stars via nχ=FχnB softens the equation of state and lowers the maximum mass, but the vector interaction invoked is numerically negligible.

  4. Stability Boundary of Neutron-Dark Matter Mixed Stars

    astro-ph.HE 2025-12 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    For two-fluid neutron–dark-matter stars, the paper claims a rigorous equivalence between the static critical-curve stability criterion and the vanishing of a radial oscillation mode, and maps the resulting stable conf...

  5. Can Orbital Decay of Accreting Binary Pulsars Probe Dark Matter?

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Dark matter accretion onto binary pulsars is far too weak to affect observed orbital decay, so existing pulsar timing data cannot probe dark matter microphysics.

  6. Effects of dark matter and magnetic field on neutron star properties in relativistic mean-field theory: A single-fluid approach

    astro-ph.HE 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Fermionic dark matter and strong central magnetic fields both reduce neutron-star maximum mass and radius and lower tidal deformability in single-fluid RMF models, remaining compatible with GW/NICER constraints over t...
