abstract
The effects of $\Delta$ isobars on the equation of state of dense matter and structure of compact stars (CSs) are explored within the covariant density functional theory and confronted with the data on tidal deformability (TD) extracted from the GW170817 event. We show that the presence of $\Delta$ isobars substantially softens the tension between the predictions of the hypernuclear density functionals and the inference from the observations of relatively small radius and small TD of canonical mass CSs. The TDs deduced from GW170817 are compatible with the existence of hypernuclear CSs containing an admixture of $\Delta$ isobars. We thus argue that the GW170817 event is consistent with a merger of a binary CS system having both strangeness (hyperons) and $\Delta$ isobars in the stellar core.

Bayesian inferences on covariant density functionals from multimessenger astrophysical data: Influences of parametrizations of density dependent couplings
Different parametrizations of density dependence in covariant density functionals produce significant variations in the high-density equation of state and symmetry energy, with rational-function forms providing flexibility when saturation properties are adjusted and constrained by multimessenger ast
