KIDS Energy Density Functional and Mass–Radius Relation of Neutron Stars

Abstract: Many efforts are made to determine the nuclear equation of state which governs the properties and evolution of neutron stars. Especially important is to constrain the parameters of the nuclear symmetry energy. In those efforts, nuclear energy density functional (EDF) theory has been a very useful tool, as it provides a unified framework for the description both of nuclei, which can be studied on Earth, and of infinite matter and its nuclear equation of state, which is a necessary input in the modelling of neut… Show more

“…Future applications abound: Our method will allow us to vary independently and at will all relevant EoS parameters (e.g., compression modulus or symmetry energy parameters) around a baseline set of values (here, those of KIDS-ad2) and the effective mass and to examine their effects on predictions for nuclear observables. An exploration of symmetry-energy parameters is underway [46,47]. Explorations of giant resonances are also in progress [48].…”
