We propose three scenarios for compact hybrid stars consisting of nuclear and dark matters which could possibly serve as alternative interpretations to the LIGO/Virgo events GW170817 and GW190425. To demonstrate our proposal, we adopt the SLy4 equation of state (EoS) for nuclear matter, and an EoS for a bosonic self-interacting dark matter (SIDM), which is simple and capable of yielding both reasonable halo density and compact stars. We study the mass-radius and tidal Love number (TLN)-mass relations for these compact hybrid stars, and also generalize the Bardeen-Thorne-Meltzer (BTM) criteria to discuss in details the possible saddle instability due to the nature of two-fluid model. Our results show that it is possible for our hybrid star scenarios to explain GW170817 and GW190425. Some of the hybrid stars can have compact neutron or mixed cores around 10km while possessing thick dark matter shells, which can then explain the astrophysical observations of neutron stars with compact photon radius and mass higher than 2 solar masses. Reversely, we also infer the dark matter model from the parameter estimation of GW190425. Our scenarios of compact hybrid stars can be further tested by the coming LIGO/Virgo O3 events.

Gravitational wave observations of GW170817 placed bounds on the tidal deformabilities of compact stars allowing one to probe equations of state for matter at supranuclear densities. Here we design new parametrizations for hybrid hadron-quark equatio ns of state, that give rise to low-mass twin stars, and test them against GW170817. We find that GW170817 is consistent with the coalescence of a binary hybrid star--neutron star. We also test and find that the I-Love-Q relations for hybrid stars in the third family agree with those for purely hadronic and quark stars within $sim 3%$ for both slowly and rapidly rotating configurations, implying that these relations can be used to perform equation-of-state independent tests of general relativity and to break degeneracies in gravitational waveforms for hybrid stars in the third family as well.
Multi-messenger gravitational wave (GW) astronomy has commenced with the detection of the binary neutron star merger GW170817 and its associated electromagnetic counterparts. The almost coincident observation of both signals places an exquisite bound on the GW speed $|c_g/c-1|leq5cdot10^{-16}$. We use this result to probe the nature of dark energy (DE), showing that a large class of scalar-tensor theories and DE models are highly disfavored. As an example we consider the covariant Galileon, a cosmologically viable, well motivated gravity theory which predicts a variable GW speed at low redshift. Our results eliminate any late-universe application of these models, as well as their Horndeski and most of their beyond Horndeski generalizations. Three alternatives (and their combinations) emerge as the only possible scalar-tensor DE models: 1) restricting Horndeskis action to its simplest terms, 2) applying a conformal transformation which preserves the causal structure and 3) compensating the different terms that modify the GW speed (to be robust, the compensation has to be independent on the background on which GWs propagate). Our conclusions extend to any other gravity theory predicting varying $c_g$ such as Einstein-Aether, Hov{r}ava gravity, Generalized Proca, TeVeS and other MOND-like gravities.
We use gravitational-wave observations of the binary neutron star merger GW170817 to explore the tidal deformabilities and radii of neutron stars. We perform Bayesian parameter estimation with the source location and distance informed by electromagne tic observations. We also assume that the two stars have the same equation of state; we demonstrate that for stars with masses comparable to the component masses of GW170817, this is effectively implemented by assuming that the stars dimensionless tidal deformabilities are determined by the binarys mass ratio $q$ by $Lambda_1/Lambda_2 = q^6$. We investigate different choices of prior on the component masses of the neutron stars. We find that the tidal deformability and 90$%$ credible interval is $tilde{Lambda}=222^{+420}_{-138}$ for a uniform component mass prior, $tilde{Lambda}=245^{+453}_{-151}$ for a component mass prior informed by radio observations of Galactic double neutron stars, and $tilde{Lambda}=233^{+448}_{-144}$ for a component mass prior informed by radio pulsars. We find a robust measurement of the common areal radius of the neutron stars across all mass priors of $8.9 le hat{R} le 13.2$ km, with a mean value of $langle hat{R} rangle = 10.8$ km. Our results are the first measurement of tidal deformability with a physical constraint on the stars equation of state and place the first lower bounds on the deformability and areal radii of neutron stars using gravitational waves.

Motivated by the recent discoveries of compact objects from LIGO/Virgo observations, we study the possibility of identifying some of these objects as compact stars made of dark matter called dark stars, or the mix of dark and nuclear matters called h ybrid stars. In particular, in GW190814, a new compact object with 2.6 $M_{odot}$ is reported. This could be the lightest black hole, the heaviest neutron star, and a dark or hybrid star. In this work, we extend the discussion on the interpretations of the recent LIGO/Virgo events as hybrid stars made of various self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) in the isotropic limit. We pay particular attention to the saddle instability of the hybrid stars which will constrain the possible SIDM models.
