The Nuclear Equation of State and Neutron Star Masses

Lattimer, James M.

Understand

Neutron stars are valuable laboratories for the study of dense matter.

Recent observations have uncovered both massive and low-mass neutron stars and have also set constraints on neutron star radii.
The largest mass measurements are powerfully influencing the high-density equation of state because of the existence of the neutron star maximum mass.
The smallest mass measurements, and the distributions of masses, have implications for the progenitors and formation mechanisms of neutron stars.
