Hunting for Gravitational Waves from Spinning Neutron Stars
Continuous gravitational waves produced by spinning neutron stars are another avenue for LIGO to listen to the Universe.
Flux Tube Bundles in Neutron Star Super-Mixture
Flux tubes in the superfluid-superconductor mixture inside of neutron stars may form bundles, or merge into larger, multi-quantum flux tubes.
More on GW170817: Black Hole Popcorn and the Gravitational Wave Background
What are the implications of the historic detection of binary neutron star merger GW170817 for the gravitational wave stochastic background?
Challenges with Testing the No-Hair Theorem
In today’s paper, the authors find that the ringdown frequency and damping time cannot be measured with arbitrary precision, no matter how loud the signal.
Nuclear Pasta in Neutron Stars
Inside neutron stars we find exotic phases of matter called “nuclear pasta”.
