Hybrid stars in the light of GW170817
read the original abstract
We have studied the effect of tidal deformability constraint given by the binary neutron star merger event GW170817 on the equations of state (EOS) of hybrid stars. The EOS are constructed by matching the hadronic EOS described by relativistic mean field (RMF) model and parameter sets NL3, TM1 and NL3$\omega\rho$ with the quark matter EOS described by modified MIT bag model, via Gibbs' construction. It is found that the tidal deformability constraints along with the lower bound on maximum mass ($M_{\rm max}=2.01\pm0.04M_\odot$) significantly limit the bag model parameter space ($B_{\rm eff}^{1/4}$, $a_4$). We also obtain upper limits on the radius of $1.4M_\odot$ and $1.6M_\odot$ stars as $R_{1.4}\leq13.2-13.5$ km and $R_{1.6}\leq13.2-13.4$ km, respectively for different hadronic EOS considered here.

Distinct Signatures of the Nature of Phase Transition in Binary Neutron Star Mergers
Simulations with a tunable phase-transition parameter in neutron-star equations of state produce unique post-merger gravitational-wave peaks and link Δp to the prompt-collapse mass threshold, with Δp ≲ 0.04 implied fo...

$f$-mode Oscillations for Hyperons and H-dibaryons in Neutron Stars
The study examines the effects of hyperons and H-dibaryons on f-mode oscillations in neutron stars using the quark meson coupling model and tests universal relations in the Cowling approximation.
