We apply the statistical measure of complexity introduced by Lopez-Ruiz, Mancini and Calbet (1995) [1] to neutron star structure. We continue the recent application of Sanudo and Pacheco (2009) [2] to white dwarfs. The interplay of gravity, the short-range nuclear force and the very short-range weak interaction shows that neutron stars, under the current theoretical framework, are ordered (low complexity) systems.

Probing the Nuclear Equation of State from the Existence of a ∼2.6 M⊙ Neutron Star: The GW190814 Puzzle

Alkiviadis Kanakis-Pegios, Polychronis S. Koliogiannis, Charalampos C. Moustakidis

Summary: This work investigates the GW190814 event observed by the LIGO/Virgo collaboration, discussing issues such as mass gap, speed of sound upper bounds, and nuclear equation of state. It highlights the importance of these studies in addressing problems related to neutron star mass and providing insights for future observations of similar isolated neutron stars or systems in the universe.

P. S. Koliogiannis, Ch C. Moustakidis

Summary: This study focuses on predicting the equation of state of hot, dense nuclear matter and its impact on the interior of neutron stars. Thermal effects are introduced in a self-consistent way, and a set of isothermal and isentropic equations of state are predicted for further research on nonrotating and rapidly rotating neutron stars.

Crust-core interface and bulk neutron star properties

Ch Margaritis, P. S. Koliogiannis, A. Kanakis-Pegios, Ch C. Moustakidis

Summary: The nuclear symmetry energy is crucial in describing finite nuclei and neutron stars, especially for low baryon density. This study applies a class of nuclear models to investigate the impact of higher order energy expansions on the crust-core transition location for neutron stars. Results show that the slope parameter L affects the convergence rate of the expansion, and a universal relation is found between L and the transition density. The study also highlights the sensitivity of crustal moment of inertia to transition location and the effects on neutron star properties.

Robust enhanced acoustic sensing via gradient phononic crystals

Tinggui Chen, Baizhan Xia, Dejie Yu, Chuanxing Bi

Summary: This study proposes a gradient phononic crystal structure for enhanced acoustic sensing. By breaking the symmetry of the PC structure, topologically protected edge states are introduced, resulting in topological acoustic rainbow trapping. The robustness and enhancement properties are verified numerically and experimentally.
