Neutron star properties in the Thomas-Fermi model
نویسندگان
چکیده
The modern nucleon-nucleon interaction of Myers and Swiatecki, adjusted to the properties of finite nuclei, the parameters of the mass formula, and the behavior of the optical potential is used to calculate the properties of β–equilibrated neutron star matter, and to study the impact of this equation of state on the properties of (rapidly rotating) neutron stars and their cooling behavior. The results are in excellent agreement with the outcome of calculations performed for a broad collection of sophisticated nonrelativistic as well as relativistic models for the equation of state.

Symmetric and asymmetric nuclear matter in the Thomas-Fermi model at finite temperatures
The properties of warm symmetric and asymmetric nuclear matter are investigated in the frame of the Thomas-Fermi approximation using a recent modern parametrization of the effective nucleon-nucleon interaction of Myers and Świa̧tecki. Special attention is paid to the liquid-gas phase transition, which is of special interest in modern nuclear physics. We have determined the critical temperature, ...
متن کاملStructure of Proton Component of Neutron Star Matter for Realistic Nuclear Models
We study properties of the proton component of neutron star matter for a number of realistic nuclear models. Protons which form a few percent admixture tend to be localized in potential wells corresponding to neutron matter inhomogeneities created by the protons in the neutron medium. We calculate the energy of the Wigner-Seitz cell enclosing a single localized proton. The neutron background is...

متن کاملRelativistic Equation of State of Nuclear Matter for Supernova and Neutron Star
We construct the equation of state (EOS) of nuclear matter using the relativistic mean field (RMF) theory in the wide density, temperature range with various proton fractions for the use of supernova simulation and the neutron star calculations. We first construct the EOS of homogeneous nuclear matter. We use then the Thomas-Fermi approximation to describe inhomogeneous matter, where heavy nucl...
متن کاملDifferent Magnetic Field Distributions in Deformed Neutron Stars
In this work, we review the formalism which would allow us to model magnetically deformed neutron stars. We study the effect of different magnetic field configurations on the equation of state (EoS) and the structure of such stars. For this aim, the EoS of magnetars is acquired by using the lowest order constraint variational (LOCV) method and employing the AV18 potential....
