Spectrum of shear modes in the neutron-star crust: Estimating the nuclear-physics uncertainties

Spectrum of shear modes in the neutron-star crust: Estimating the nuclear-physics uncertainties

I construct a model of the inner crust of neutron stars using interactions from chiral effective field theory (EFT) in order to calculate its equation of state (EOS), shear properties, and the spectrum of crustal shear modes. I systematically study uncertainties associated with the nuclear physics input, the crust composition, …
