摘要:

由于双星合并事件GW 190814中的$2.50-2.67\,M_\odot$致密天体的未知性质,我们基于低能核物理的约束、GW 170817中的中子星潮汐形变和NICER中PSR J 0030 +045的同步质量半径测量,研究了中子星的最大质量.我们的先验分布是基于一个组合的核建模有效的正常核密度附近的最大刚性状态方程在高密度的假设,一个选择,使我们能够探测所观察到的重中子星和过渡密度之间的连接,在传统的核物理模型必须打破。我们表明,修改的高度不确定的超饱和密度状态方程超过2.64倍正常核密度是需要的手征有效场论模型是一致的,目前的中子星观测和$2.6\,M_\odot$中子星的存在。我们还表明,非常大质量的中子星的存在强烈影响$\sim 2.0\,M_\odot$中子星的半径(但不一定是$1.4\,M_\odot$中子星的半径),这进一步激发了未来的NICER PSR J1614-2230和PSR J 0740 +6620的半径测量。

英文摘要:

Motivated by the unknown nature of the $2.50-2.67\,M_\odot$ compact object in the binary merger event GW190814, we study the maximum neutron star mass based on constraints from low-energy nuclear physics, neutron star tidal deformabilities from GW170817, and simultaneous mass-radius measurements of PSR J0030+045 from NICER. Our prior distribution is based on a combination of nuclear modeling valid in the vicinity of normal nuclear densities together with the assumption of a maximally stiff equation of state at high densities, a choice that enables us to probe the connection between observed heavy neutron stars and the transition density at which conventional nuclear physics models must break down. We demonstrate that a modification of the highly uncertain supra-saturation density equation of state beyond 2.64 times normal nuclear density is required in order for chiral effective field theory models to be consistent with current neutron star observations and the existence of $2.6\,M_\odot$ neutron stars. We also show that the existence of very massive neutron stars strongly impacts the radii of $\sim 2.0\,M_\odot$ neutron stars (but not necessarily the radii of $1.4\,M_\odot$ neutron stars), which further motivates future NICER radius measurements of PSR J1614-2230 and PSR J0740+6620.
