Dark matter admixed neutron star as a possible compact component in the GW190814 merger event

We put constraints on the secondary component of GW190814 by analyzing the observational data of the event. The relativistic mean-field models are used to calculate the mass-radius profile and tidal deformability of the compact object, considering it as a massive neutron star with the presence of dark matter particles inside it. With the increase of dark matter percentage, the maximum mass, radius, and tidal deformability of the neutron star decreases. We observe that the predicted properties are well consistent with GW190814 observational data, suggesting the possibility of a dark matter admixed neutron star if the underlying nuclear equation of state is sufficiently stiff.

Application of the coherent density fluctuation model to study the nuclear matter properties of finite nuclei within the relativistic mean-field formalism

We obtained a density-dependent analytical expression of binding energy per nucleon for different neutron-proton asymmetry of the nuclear matter (NM) with a polynomial fitting, which manifests the results of effective field theory motivated relativistic mean-field (E-RMF) model. This expression has the edge over the Br$\ddot{u}$ckner energy density functional [Phys. Rev. {\bf 171}, 1188 (1968)] since it resolves the Coster-Band problem. The NM parameters like incompressibility, neutron pressure, symmetry energy, and its derivatives are calculated using the acquired expression of energy per nucleon. Further, the weight function calculated by E-RMF densities are folded with calculated NM parameters within coherent density fluctuation model to find the properties of closed/semi-closed-shell even-even $^{16}$O, $^{40}$Ca, $^{48}$Ca, $^{56}$Ni, $^{90}$Zr, $^{116}$Sn, and $^{208}$Pb nuclei. The values obtained for the neutron pressure $P^{A}$, symmetry energy $S^{A}$ and its derivative $L_{sym}^A$ known as slope parameter, lie within a narrow domain whereas there is a large variation in isoscalar incompressibility $K^{A}$ and surface incompressibility $K_{sym}^{A}$ while moving from light to heavy nuclei. The sizable variation in $K^{A}$ and $K_{sym}^{A}$ for light and heavy nuclei depicts their structural dependence due to the peculiar density distribution of each nucleus. A comparison of surface quantities calculated in the present work has also been made with ones obtained via Br$\ddot{u}$ckner energy density functional.

Constraining Bag constant for Hybrid Neutron stars

We study the star matter properties for Hybrid equation of state (EoS) by varying the bag constant. We use the Effective-Field-Theory motivated Relativistic Mean-Field model (E-RMF) for hadron phase with recently reported FSUGarnet, G3 and IOPB-I parameter sets. The result of NL3 and NL3${ωρ}$ sets are also shown for comparison. The simple MIT Bag model is applied for the quark phase to construct the hybrid EoS. The hybrid neutron star mass and radius are calculated by varying with $B^{1/4}$ to constrain the $B^{1/4}$ values. It is found that $B^{1/4}$=130-160 MeV is suitable for explaining the quark matter in neutron stars.

Warm dense matter and cooling of supernovae remnants

We study the thermal effects on the nuclear matter (NM) properties such as binding energy, incompressibility, free symmetry energy and its coefficients using NL3, G3 and IU-FSU parameter sets of relativistic mean-field models. These models being consistent with the properties of cold NM, have also been used to study the effect of temperature by incorporating the Fermi function. The critical temperature for the liquid-gas phase transition in the symmetric NM is found to be 14.60, 15.37 and 14.50 MeV for NL3, G3 and IU-FSU parameter sets respectively, which is in excellent agreement with previous theoretical and experimental studies. We inspect that the properties related to second differential coefficient of the binding energy and free symmetry energy at saturation density ( i.e. K 0 (n, T ) and Q sym,0) exhibit the contrary effects for NL3 and G3 parameters as the temperature increases. We find that the prediction of saturated curvature parameter ( K sym,0 ) for G3 equation of state at finite temperature favour the combined analysis of K sym,0 for the existence of massive pulsars, gravitational waves from GW170817 and NICER observations of PSR J0030+0451. Further, we investigate the cooling mechanism of newly born stars through neutrino emissivity controlled by direct Urca process and instate some interesting remarks about neutrino emissivity. We also deliberate the effect of temperature on the M-R profile of Proto-Neutron star.
