Novel Neutron Star Structures with Nucleon Mass Radius


Abstract in English

In order to reveal the difference between the latest neutron star observation experiment GW170817 and the existing theory, we mainly consider the effect of the nucleon radius on the neutron star from the existing theory. We believe that the effect of nucleon radius in neutron star is not negligible, and the mass radius of nucleon should be used instead of the charge radius. The nucleon mass radius is set as $r_m = 0.55pm0.09$ fm from the new measurements. It is considered as an input to the Excluded Volume Effects model in the equation of state of nuclear matter. We propose a novel neutron star mass-radius relation by using proton mass radius is consistent with the observation GW170817.
