In this article, I introduce ideas and techniques to extract information about the equation of
state of matter at very high densities from gravitational waves emitted before, during and …

We explore in a parameterized manner a very large range of physically plausible equations
of state (EOSs) for compact stars for matter that is either purely hadronic or that exhibits a …

Observations of neutron stars, whether in binaries or in isolation, provide information about
the internal structure of the most extreme material objects in the Universe. In this work, we …

The Cosmic-Ray Extremely Distributed Observatory (CREDO) is a newly formed, global
collaboration dedicated to observing and studying cosmic rays (CR) and cosmic-ray …

The detection of GW170817 in gravitational waves provides unprecedented constraints on
the equation of state (EOS) of the ultradense matter within the cores of neutron stars (NSs) …

Gravitational wave observations of GW170817 placed bounds on the tidal deformabilities of
compact stars, allowing one to probe equations of state for matter at supranuclear densities …

The observation of a compact object with a mass of 2.50–2.67M⊙ on 2019 August 14, by
the LIGO Scientific and Virgo collaborations (LVC) has the potential to improve our …

Formed in the aftermath of gravitational core-collapse supernova explosions, neutron stars
are unique cosmic laboratories for probing the properties of matter under extreme conditions …

We present a novel relativistic density-functional approach to modeling quark matter with a
mechanism to mimic confinement. The quasiparticle treatment of quarks provides their …

A class of hybrid compact star equations of state is investigated that joins by a Maxwell
construction a low-density phase of hadronic matter, modeled by a relativistic mean-field …
