We describe the model of surface emission from a rapidly rotating neutron star that is applied to Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer X-ray data of millisecond pulsars in order to statistically constrain the neutron star mass-radius relation and dense matter equation of state. To ensure that the associated calculations are both accurate and precise, we conduct an extensive suite of verification tests between our numerical codes for both the Schwarzschild + Doppler and Oblate Schwarzschild approximations, and compare both approximations against exact numerical calculations. We find superb agreement between the code outputs, as well as in comparison against a set of analytical and semi-analytical calculations, which combined with their speed, demonstrates that the codes are well-suited for large-scale statistical sampling applications. A set of verified, high-precision reference synthetic pulse profiles is provided to the community to facilitate testing of other independently developed codes.

Hadronic lensing
In a pion condensate, photons behave as massive particles and gravitational lensing gains a hadronic correction; the paper derives the modified ray equations and the deflection formula for a pionic-vortex black hole.

A NICER view of the millisecond pulsar PSR J2124$-$3358: evidence for a helium atmosphere
X-PSI modeling of NICER/Chandra data for PSR J2124−3358 substantially prefers a helium atmosphere, giving M = 1.8 ± 0.5 M⊙ and Req = 11.7^{+2.6}_{-3.0} km with two slightly non-antipodal hot spots.

Probing of EoS with clusters and hypernuclei
Using the PHQMD transport model, the paper shows that a soft momentum-dependent nuclear equation of state reproduces most STAR 3 GeV Au+Au data for baryons, clusters and hypernuclei, while a hard equation of state giv...

Probing Neutron Star Interiors and the Properties of Cold Ultra-dense Matter with the SKAO
SKAO's sensitivity, surveys and sub-arraying will deliver tighter NS mass, MoI, spin, glitch and precession constraints that, with X-ray and GW data, probe cold ultra-dense matter.

Study on the equation-of-state with light clusters and hypernuclei
A review of transport-model constraints on the nuclear equation of state from flow of protons, light clusters, and hypernuclei, concluding that soft momentum-dependent potentials fit few-GeV data best.
