5 Stellar Evolution (Credit: NASA/CXC/M.Weiss)
6 Supernova Explosions (Janka, (MPIA, Munich)) stars with a mass of more than 8 solar masses end in a (core collapse) supernova Supernova of AD 1054 was visible for three weeks during daytime (crab nebula)! supernovae are several thousand times brighter than a whole galaxy! last supernova explosion for the last 400 years in our local group: SN1987A most prominent candidate in the universe for producing the heavy elements (r-process)
7 Neutron Stars produced in core collapse supernova explosions compact, massive objects: radius 10 km, mass 1 2M extreme densities, several times nuclear density: n n 0 = g/cm 3 in the middle of the crab nebula: a pulsar, a rotating neutron star!
8 The Double Pulsar PSR J sensational discovery of two pulsars orbiting each other (Lyne et al. 2004) measured five post-keplerian parameters: Shapiro delay r and s, redshift γ, periastron advance ω, decrease in orbital period Ṗb (Kramer et al. 2006) all in agreement with the prediction of GR to within 0.05%! fundamental tests of General Relativity in STRONG fields animation (credit: Michael Kramer)
9 Masses of Pulsars more than 2000 pulsars known with 140 binary pulsars best determined mass: M = ±0.0002M Hulse-Taylor pulsar PSR B: M = 2.74±0.21M (stat. analysis in inclination) (Freire et al. 2007) black-widow pulsar PSR B : M = 2.40±0.12M (pulsar consumes its star) (van Kerkwijk et al. 2010) black widow pulsar PSR J : M > 2.1M (Romani et al. 2012) (Lattimer 2012)
10 Orbital Phase (turns) Companion Mass (solar) Pulsar Mass (solar) Mass of pulsar PSR J (Demorest et al. 2010) Inclination Angle (deg) Timing residual (µs) Probability Density extremely strong signal for Shapiro delay Shapiro delay parameters r and s alone give M = (1.97±0.04)M very high mass! high pulsar masses confirmed with PSR J : M = (2.01±0.04)M (Antoniadis et al. 2013) considerable constraints on neutron star matter properties!
11 Constraints on the Mass Radius Relation (Lattimer and Prakash 2004) Mass (solar) GR P < causality MPA1 AP3 ENG AP4 J SQM3 MS1 J FSU SQM1 PAL6 GM3 J GS1 Double NS Systems PAL1 MS2 MS0 0.5 rotation Nucleons Nucleons+ExoticStrange Quark Matter Radius (km) spin rate from PSR B of 641 Hz: R < 15.5 km for M = 1.4M Schwarzschild limit (GR): R > 2GM = R s causality limit for EoS: R > 3GM mass limit from PSR J (red band): M = (1.97±0.04)M
12 X-Ray burster binary systems of a neutron star with an ordinary star accreting material on the neutron star ignites nuclear burning explosion on the surface of the neutron star: x-ray burst red shifted spectral lines measured! (z = 0.35 M/M = 1.5 (R/10 km)) (Cottam, Paerels, Mendez (2002))
13 Future: Square Kilometer Array (SKA) receiving surface of 1 million square kilometers 1 billion dollar international project potential to discover: 10,000 to 20,000 new pulsars more than 1,000 millisecond pulsars at least 100 compact relativistic binaries! probing the equation of state at extreme limits! cosmic gravitational wave detector by using pulsars as clocks! to be built in Australia and South Africa

15 Hydrostatic Equilibrium in General Relativity General Relativity: three relativistic correction factors dp dr = G M ( rǫ r 2 1+ P )( 1+ 4πr 3 )( P 1 2GM ) 1 r (1) ǫ M r r with the mass conservation equation dm dr = 4πr 2 ǫ (2) these are called the Tolman Oppenheimer Volkoff equations (Tolman (1934), Oppenheimer and Volkoff (1939)). The Schwarzschild radius is defined as R s = 2GM: for the sun R s = 3 km and for earth R s = 9 mm. Note: the mass density ρ is replaced by the energy density ǫ!
16 Structure of Neutron Stars the Crust (Dany Page) n 10 4 g/cm 3 : atmosphere (atoms) n = g/cm 3 : outer crust or envelope (free e, lattice of nuclei) n = g/cm 3 : Inner crust (lattice of nuclei with free neutrons and e )
