The authors find that reproducing a 2.1 solar mass maximum neutron star requires a neutron effective mass of 0.60-0.65 at saturation density, leading to radius 12.4 km and tidal deformability 423 for a 1.4 solar mass star.

abstract
Calculations of equilibrium properties of dense matter predict that at subnuclear densities nuclei can be rodlike or slablike. To investigate whether transitions between phases with non-spherical nuclei can occur during the collapse of a star, we perform quantum molecular dynamic simulations of the compression of dense matter. We have succeeded in simulating the transitions between rodlike and slablike nuclei and between slablike nuclei and cylindrical bubbles. Our results strongly suggest that non-spherical nuclei can be formed in the inner cores of collapsing stars.
