The answer is intimately related to the properties of matter at densities far beyond that found in heavy atomic nuclei. The current view on the internal constitution of neutron stars and on their maximum mass, both from theoretical and observational studies, are briefly reviewed.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2013-11-18T13:44:41.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "04.40.Dg", "26.60.Kp", "97.10.Nf", "97.60.Jd" ], "keywords": [ "maximum mass", "neutron stars concerns", "heavy atomic nuclei", "observational studies", "current view" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "journal": "International Journal of Modern Physics E", "year": 2013, "month": "Jul", "volume": 22, "number": 7, "pages": 1330018 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 25, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1242622, "adsabs": "2013IJMPE..2230018C" } } }
