Effects of in-Medium Modification of Weakly Interacting Light Boson Mass in Neutron Stars

Abstract: The effects of the presence of weakly interacting light boson (WILB) in neutron star matter have been revisited. Direct checking based on the experimental range of symmetric nuclear matter binding energy1 and the fact that the presence of this boson should give no observed effect on the crust properties of neutron star matter, shows that the characteristic scale of WILB [Formula: see text] should be ≤2 GeV-2. The recent observational data with significant low neutron stars radii2 and the recent largest pulsar … Show more

“…These results can be achieved without adjusting the hyperons coupling constant, introducing hypothetical particle like WILB or modifying the nonlinear terms in the strange meson sector. [29][30][31][32][33] Furthermore, by assuming that NS matter may have anisotropic pressure, the NS maximum mass limit higher than 2.1 M ⊙ cannot rule out the presence of exotica in the form of hyperons, boson condensations or quark matter inside the NS core. For I-P case, the canonical radius with hyperons is R 1.4 =12.57 km, and R 1.4 =12.61 km without hyperons.…”

“…In relativistic mean field (RMF) models, the situation is quite similar, M max ∼ 2.1 M ⊙ can be reached only by adjusting the model parameters in the hyperon sector or modifying nonlinear in the strange sector or introducing hypothetical weakly interacting light boson (WILB). [29][30][31][32][33] The puzzle that whether or not the hyperons are present in the NS core has triggered the theoreticians to revisit the NS models (see Refs. 34-40 for details).…”

“…Effects of non-Newtonian gravity on the properties of neutron stars and SSs have been studied extensively [e.g., [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]. The conventional inverse-square-law of gravity is expected to be violated in the efforts of trying to unify gravity with the other three fundamental forces, namely, the electromagnetic, weak and strong interactions [20][21][22].…”

“…In addition, this issue has attracted a great deal of attention in a nuclear physics context, for instance, it has strong effects on finite nuclei (Xu et al 2013), dark matter (Schmidt 1990), nuclear matter (Wen et al 2009;Zhang et al 2011), and neutron star processes (Sulaksono et al 2011;Wen & Zhou 2013).…”
