Consequently, this event puts strong constraints on the dense matter equation of state (EoS). A comparative study of dense matter equations of state (EoSs) is presented here. It is found that the $\\Lambda$ hyperon EoS BHB$\\Lambda\\phi$ (Banik, Hempel $\\&$ Bandyopadhyay 2014) constructed within the framework of the density dependent hadron field theory is favoured.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-12-28T05:47:56.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "dense matter equation", "neutron star merger event gw170817", "density dependent hadron field theory", "star merger event gw170817 sets" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 10, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
