We report results from continued timing observations of PSR J0740+6620, a high-mass, 2.8-ms radio pulsar in orbit with a likely ultra-cool white dwarf companion. Our data set consists of combined pulse arrival-time measurements made with the 100-m Green Bank Telescope and the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment telescope. We explore the significance of timing-based phenomena arising from general-relativistic dynamics and variations in pulse dispersion. When using various statistical methods, we find that combining $\sim 1.5$ years of additional, high-cadence timing data with previous measurements confirms and improves upon previous estimates of relativistic effects within the PSR J0740+6620 system, with the pulsar mass $m_{\rm p} = 2.08^{+0.07}_{-0.07}$ M$_\odot$ (68.3\% credibility) determined by the relativistic Shapiro time delay. For the first time, we measure secular variation in the orbital period and argue that this effect arises from apparent acceleration due to significant transverse motion. After incorporating contributions from Galactic differential rotation and off-plane acceleration in the Galactic potential, we obtain a model-dependent distance of $d = 1.14^{+0.17}_{-0.15}$ kpc (68.3\% credibility). This improved distance confirms the ultra-cool nature of the white dwarf companion determined from recent optical observations. We discuss the prospects for future observations with next-generation facilities, which will likely improve the precision on $m_{\rm p}$ for J0740+6620 by an order of magnitude within the next few years.

Minimal Proton-Mass Dark Matter

hep-ph · 2026-06-18 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

A minimal dark matter model with one complex scalar carrying B and L numbers, stabilized by proton stability, with mass near the proton mass and relic density from UV freeze-in.

Neutron stars in a conservative $f(R,T)$ gravity

gr-qc · 2026-05-09 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

A conservative f(R,T) gravity reformulation decouples the gravitational sector from the microphysical equation of state, enabling computation of neutron star mass-radius relations and tidal deformabilities that satisfy current astrophysical constraints.

The Radius of PSR J0740+6620 from NICER and XMM-Newton Data

astro-ph.HE · 2021-05-14 · conditional · novelty 6.0

PSR J0740+6620 has an equatorial radius of 13.7^{+2.6}_{-1.5} km, and multi-messenger data constrain 1.4 and 2.08 solar-mass neutron star radii to 12.45 and 12.35 km respectively.

Hybrid Stars with Post-Merger Rotation Profiles

gr-qc · 2026-06-16 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Differential rotation in hybrid stars with deconfinement phase transition allows quasi-toroidal configurations with quark matter rings and leads to degeneracies in rotational profiles at mass-radius curve intersections.

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,

Properties of Stable Massive Quark Stars in Holography

hep-ph · 2025-12-02 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Holographic model of massive deconfined quarks yields a stiff enough equation of state to allow stable 2-solar-mass hybrid stars with quark cores for certain nuclear phases.

Impact of Anisotropy on Neutron Star Structure and Curvature

gr-qc · 2025-12-30 · unverdicted · novelty 4.0

Moderate positive pressure anisotropy raises neutron star maximum mass to about 2.4 solar masses and compactness by up to 20 percent, with curvature scalars tied to matter showing strong sensitivity while the Weyl scalar stays largely insensitive.
