Finite volume of baryons and the mass limit for neutron stars

Finite volume of baryons and the mass limit for neutron stars

The authors confirm the following idea by numerical calculation; the extended structure of baryons may make the nuclear equation of state stiffer at higher density while keeping the compression modulus for normal nuclear matter around its empirical value K=240 MeV. A model built in this way fits all empirical data …
