介质效应对中子星性质的影响

用Bonn势和包含介质修正的相对论平均场模型讨论了介质效应对中子星性质的影响,结果表明BR标度参数的增加导致中子星质量及半径的增加.     

超子中子星性质的温度效应

从相对论平均场理论出发,考虑核子、超子和介子的相互作用,研究了温度对中子星组成粒子、状态方程和中子星质量等的影响.发现温度越高,超子在中子星内部出现时的重子数密度越低.当密度较高时,中子星的核心区主要由超子组成,即中子星转变成以奇异粒子为主要成分的超子星,并且这种转变受到温度的影响,温度越高,转变密度越低.由于超子的出现,中子星核心高密度区域的状态方程,对于不同温度,差别不大,所以有限温度中子星的最大质量都在1.8M_⊙附近.这与观测结果相符.     

致密物质性质和适用于超新星及中子星研究的状态方程(英文)

采用相对论平均场方法研究了致密物质的性质, 构造了包括较宽温度、 同位旋不对称度和密度范围的适用于超新星模拟研究的状态方程, 均匀物质由相对论平均场理论描述, 非均匀物质由托马斯 费米近似给出。讨论了包含超子自由度的中子星物质的状态方程。 计算结果表明, 包含超子可以有效地软化高密度区的状态方程, Λ超子的超流态有可能存在于大质量中子星内部。The properties of dense matter are studied within the relativistic mean field theory. The equation of state (EOS) of dense matter are constructed covering a wide range of temperature, proton fraction, and density for the use of supernova simulations. The relativistic mean field theory is employed to describe the uniform matter, while the Thomas Fermi approximation is adopted to describe the non uniform matter. The EOS of neutron star matter is discussed with the inclusion of hyperons. It is found that the EOS at high density can be significantly softened by the inclusion of hyperons. The 1S₀ superfluidity of Λ hyperons may exist in massive neutron stars.     

均匀强磁场中中子星物质的物态方程

在Walecka模型的平均场近似下,研究了由质子、中子和电子组成的中子星物质在均匀强磁场中的性质,发现磁场增强,物态方程会在一定程度上变硬,中子所占比例显著增加,质子和电子所占比例会显著减少,磁场对物态方程的影响比它对粒子组分的影响小.本文还分别利用流体力学公式和热力学公式分别计算了中子星物质的压强,发现磁场越强,用这两种方式计算的压强越接近,当磁场为10¹⁴T时,它们完全重合.     

超子耦合参数对热前中子星物质的影响

在相对论平均场理论框架内,利用Λ超子的结合能和中子星质量的观测数据得到超子标量介子耦合参数χσ的范围是0.33—0.77。在这个范围内, 研究了χσ取不同值时, 包含核子, Λ和Ξ超子的热前中子星（固定单个重子熵s=1）的性质。结果表明, 如果超子耦合参数变大, 前中子星核心温度变高, 中微子丰度变低, 前中子星的亚稳态质量范围变小。如果χσ超过了0.75, 前中子星不可能演变成黑洞。联系SN1987A讨论了这一结果的意义。In the framework of the relativistic mean field theory(RMFT), protoneutron stars with hyperons are studied. To be compatible with neutron star masses, the hyperon scalar coupling χσ should lie in the range of 0.33—0.77. As the hyperon scalar coupling increases, in protoneutron star matter, the core temperature increases whereas the abundance of neutrinos decreases. The metastable mass range of protoneutron stars narrows as the temperature increases. It is found that a protoneutron star cannot subside into a low mass black hole when χσ>0.75. Furthermore, the case of SN1987A is discussed.     

中子星的相对论平均场研究

在相对论平均框架内计算了不同超子耦合参数下中子星内部物质的状态方程,进一步求解Oppenheimer-Volkoff方程得到了中子星的各种性质.结果表明,参数的变化对这些性质有明显的影响.     

局域物态方程对中子星整体性质的影响

由于高密非对称核物质核核相互作用的复杂性,使得目前人们对高密非对称核物质的物态方程的认识还存在很大的不确定性。利用逐段修改物态方程的方法,探究了不同密度段物态方程对中子星整体性质的影响,尤其是对典型中子星（1.4 M_⊙）半径及最大质量的影响。研究进一步证实了在2倍饱和核密度附近的物态方程对典型质量中子星的半径有显著影响。还进一步分析了中子星的质量半径关系曲线特征及其斜率（dM/dR）对物态方程的依赖性,发现dM/dR主要由饱和核密度以上的中子星物质的物态方程决定。探索不同密度段物态方程对中子星整体性质的影响以及探索dM/dR对物态方程的依赖性,主要是为将来利用中子星的天文观测来反向约束致密物质的物态方程提供理论参考。Because of the complicacy of the interaction between the nucleon-nucleon for high density matters, up to now the equation of state (EOS) of the unsymmetrical high-density nuclear matter is still uncertain. In order to investigate the imprint on the global properties by some special part of the EOS, we designedly modify part of the EOS and explore the corresponding effect on the stellar properties, especially on the radius of the typical neutron star (1.4 M_⊙) and the maximum stellar mass of the neutron star sequence for a given EOS. It is further proved by our calculation that the EOS around 2 times of the saturation nuclear density has an obvious imprint on the stellar radius of a typical neutron star. In addition, we also investigate the dependence of the mass-radius curve and its slope (dM/dR) on the EOS. It is found that the slope (dM/dR) is mainly determined by the EOS above the saturation nuclear density. In fact, the investigations above will provide some useful theoretical reference. This is expected to conversely constrain the EOS of dense matter by using the future astronomic observation data of neutron star.     

中子星物质中的K介子凝聚

用密度相关的相对论平均场理论计算了中子星物质中的K介子凝聚,结果表明中子星物质发生K介子凝聚的临界密度约为2.75ρ₀.中子星物质URCA过程发生的临界密度在考虑DB核物质中核子自能动量修正时为ρρ0≈3.16,在不考虑DB核物质中核子自能动量修正时为ρρ0≈2.25,并进一步计算了密度相关的相对论平均场理论两种参数形式对中子星物质状态方程的影响.     

中子星的直接URCA过程

D-URCA过程是中子星发射中微子冷却中最快的机制. 中子星发生D-URCA过程需要较高的质子分数比, 该比值取决于核力的同位旋依赖性, 而核力的同位旋依赖性与重核(如²⁰⁸Pb)的中子皮厚度相关. 为此,基于相对论平均场理论, 采用PK1，NL3，S271，Z271有效相互作用, 在拉氏量中引入同位旋相关的高阶修正项, 本文研究了中子星的质子分数比以及D-URCA过程与²⁰⁸Pb的中子皮厚度之间的关系.     

208ΛPb的超子分布半径和中子星结构

从相对论平均场理论出发,考虑核子、超子和介子自由度,研究了208ΛPb的超子分布半径与中子星的性质以及它们之间的关系. 计算发现当超子的耦合常数比值由0.3增大到1时,对NLSH和NL3参数组,超核的超子分布半径分别由3.905和3.849fm增大到4.346和4.230fm,而中子星的最大质量分别由1.516和1.429M⊙增大到2.776和2.744M⊙,质量为1.4M⊙的中子星半径分别由13.13和12.79km增大到13.24和13.29km.即中子星的最大质量和半径随超子分布半径增大而增加. 这样只要从实验上确定208ΛPb的超子分布半径,就可以得到中子星结构的信息.     

Equation of State of Hot Neutrino Opaque Interior Matter of Neutron Star

The equation of state of hot neutrino opaque interior matter of the neutron star and some of its properties such as the free energy, effective mass, adiabatic index, and temperature are calculated along both isothermal and isentropic paths with the AV ₁₈ and AV ₁₄ potentials using the lowest order constrained variational method. We have shown that the calculated equation of state with the AV ₁₈ potential is harder than with the AV ₁₄ potential. It is found that there is no phase transition in the hot neutrino opaque interior matter of the neutron star. We have shown that for all values of density and entropy, the adiabatic index of neutron star matter is greater than . It is shown that our calculated equations of state obey the causality condition.     

The Properties of Pure Neutron Star

For a given equation of state of neutron matter in the relativistic σ-ω model, ๏๏๏๏๏ including the vacuum fluctuation of neutron and σ meson, the properties of pure neutron star are studied. We find that the maximum mass of pure neutron star is ～ 2.0 M_{\odot}. At the same time, the influence of incompressibility of the nuclear matter to the properties of neutron star is also studied. We also find that the maximum mass of neutron stars decreases as equation of state of neutron matter becomes softer.     

利用非对称核物质状态方程对中子星的质量和半径的研究

在温度、密度及同位旋相关的核物质状态方程的基础上,通过求解Tol-man-Oppenheimer?Volkoff方程得到了中子星的质量与中心密度的关系,发现随着中心密度的变化,中子星存在一个最大质量.同时计算结果表明,中子星的最大质量与核物质状态方程的不可压缩系数、有效质量及对称能强度系数等密切相关.对中子星半径的研究表明,较硬的核物质状态方程给出的中子星半径较大,而且较大的对称能强度系数和较大的核子有效质量也会给出较大的中子星半径.     

σ和φ介子对有限温度中子星物质的影响

考虑到σ*,φ介子的贡献及重子八重态{n,p,Λ,Σ^－,Σ⁰,Σ⁺,Ξ^－,Ξ⁰}, 采用相对论平均场方法,在5—25MeV的有限温度范围内, 对中子星物质的性质进行了研究. 发现当考虑到σ*,φ介子的贡献后, 超子出现的临界密度降低了(但对Λ超子, 影响并不显著), 超子的粒子数密度增加了, 在能量密度较高时物态方程变软, 中子星的最大质量变小而相应的半径增大, 中子星的中心粒子数密度、中心能量密度和中心压强都降低了. 当温度为较低的T=5MeV, 10MeV时, σ*,φ介子的参与使出现Σ⁰,Ξ⁰,Σ⁺超子的临界密度极大地降低了; 但当温度为较高的T=15MeV, 20MeV, 25MeV时, 影响则较小. 对于Λ,Σ^－,Ξ^－超子来说, 在上述所有温度下, σ*,φ介子对超子出现的临界密度的影响都不明显.     

Pesponse of the Neutron Star Properties to the Equation of State at Low Density

Using the RMF theory to describe the neutron liquid region in the neutron star and the Fermi gas model or FMT, BPS,and BBP model to describe the crust of the neutron star (referred as Fermi gas+RMF and RMF* respectively),the properties of the neutron star are calculated and compared with those from the RMF theory. Although the EOS at low density has negligible influence on the maximum mass of the neutron star, and its corresponding central density, energy density, and pressure, it changes the mass-radius relationship of neutron stars considerably. The differences of the neutron star radius corresponding to maximum mass between the RMF theory and RMF* calculations are 0.23-0.33 km.     

Neutron Star Matter Including Delta Isobars

In this paper a new phase structure of neutron star matter including nucleons and delta isobars is presented.Particle fractions populated and pion condensations in neutron star matter are investigated in this model. The existence of the pion condensations can postpone the appearance of delta isobars. We found that both the pion condensation and reduce of the ratio of delta isobar to nucleons couplings can soften the corresponding equation of state. The maximum masses and their corresponding radii of neutron stars are calculated, and the obtained values are in observational region.     

Equation of State of Protoneutron Star with Trapped Neutrinos

The influence of trapped neutrinos on the proto-neutron star is studied in the framework of relativistic mean-field theory. The results show that trapped neutrinos increase proton fraction and make the equation of ๏๏ state of neutron star matter softer when neglecting hyperonic freedom, while suppress the appearance of hyperons and make the equation of state stiffer when including hyperons in the protoneutron star. The maximum mass, compared with cold neutron star which is in beta equilibrium, decreases by 0.06_{M_{\odot}} for non-strange protoneutron star while increases by 0.21_{M_{\odot}} for protoneutron star with hyperons when the relative number of trapped neutrino is 0.4.
