Heavy scalar fields in neutron stars form interior shell-localized profiles that reshape the effective equation of state and break the I-Q relation while remaining hidden from binary pulsar observations.
Linear coupling and rotation in scalar-tensor theories produce a complex phase transition landscape for scalarized neutron stars, with rotation increasing critical masses and Landau theory revealing overlooked solution branches.
