Revealing Previously Unexplained Properties of Neutron Stars

Physicists from Goethe University Frankfurt have established broad findings concerning the internal structure of neutron stars, where matter can reach huge densities: the stars' cores can be either highly rigid or very soft, depending on their mass. The findings were published in two separate articles.
