Estimating compressibility from maximal-mass compact star observations

We investigated recent observation data of pulsar masses of PSR J0740+6620, PSR J0348+0432, and PSR J1614−2230 based on the extended σ - ω model. We assumed that these pulsars are maximal mass compact star, which suggest that the core approximation can be applied. Using the linear relations between...

Description
Summary:We investigated recent observation data of pulsar masses of PSR J0740+6620, PSR J0348+0432, and PSR J1614−2230 based on the extended σ - ω model. We assumed that these pulsars are maximal mass compact star, which suggest that the core approximation can be applied. Using the linear relations between the microscopic and macroscopic parameters of neutron stars suggested by this model, we estimated the values of the nucleon Landau mass and nuclear compressibility m L =776.0 −84.9 +38.5 MeV and K =242.7 −28.0 +57.2 MeV, respectively.
