Introduction to nuclear physics of neutron stars — •Ingo Tews — Theoretical Division (T-2), Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los Alamos, NM 87545

Neutron stars are fascinating stellar objects born in core-collapse supernovae. Their masses reach up to two solar masses but their radii are of the order of only 10 km. Due to these extremely high densities, up to 1015 g/cm3 in their cores, neutron stars represent ideal laboratories for fundamental physics. In particular, neutron stars probe nuclear physics at densities far beyond the regime accessible in terrestrial experiments.

In this presentation, I will give an introduction to the nuclear physics relevant for the structure of neutron stars. I will present current state-of-the-art results for the equation of state of neutron-star matter and neutron-star properties, and discuss current observational limits.
