Constraining Neutron Star Nuclear Equations Of State Based On Observational Data, Alexander Clevinger
Constraining Neutron Star Nuclear Equations Of State Based On Observational Data, Alexander Clevinger
Undergraduate Honors Thesis Projects
This project analyzes recent observational data of neutron stars. It uses this to data to constrain nuclear equations of state proposed by Oter. et al. based on the maximum masses proposed by these equations of state. I do this by using numerical integration of the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkov equation to provide equilibrium states for each proposed EoS.
