abstract

We present the first direct comparison of codes based on two different numerical methods for constructing rapidly rotating relativistic stars. A code based on the Komatsu-Eriguchi-Hachisu (KEH) method (Komatsu et al. 1989), written by Stergioulas, is compared to the Butterworth-Ipser code (BI), as modified by Friedman, Ipser and Parker. We compare models obtained by each method and evaluate the accuracy and efficiency of the two codes. The agreement is surprisingly good. A relatively large discrepancy recently reported (Eriguchi et al. 1994) is found to arise from the use of two different versions of the equation of state. We find, for a given equation of state, that equilibrium models with maximum values of mass, baryon mass, and angular momentum are (generically) all distinct and either all unstable to collapse or are all stable. Our implementation of the KEH method will be available as a public domain program for interested users.

Bayesian analysis of density profile of light dark matter elucidating the properties of dark matter admixed neutron stars in the presence of hyperons

nucl-th · 2026-05-14 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Bayesian analysis finds that the likely ranges of light dark-matter fermion mass and exponential density-profile parameter in hyperon-containing neutron stars are nearly independent of the hadronic model for symmetry-energy slopes between 40 and 58 MeV, with HESS J1731-347 and GW170817 data playing,
