Constraining the Dense Matter Equation of State with Joint Analysis of NICER and LIGO/Virgo Measurements
The NICER collaboration recently published a joint estimate of the mass and the radius of PSR J0030+0451, derived via X-ray pulse-profile modeling. Raaijmakers et al. (2019) explored the implications of this measurement for the dense matter equation of state (EOS) using two parameterizations of the high-density EOS: a piecewise-polytropic model, …
