Neutron Stars (NSs) are compact stellar objects that are stable solutions in General Relativity. Their internal structure is usually described using an equation of state that involves the presence of ordinary matter and its interactions. However there is now a large consensus that an elusive sector of matter in the universe, described as dark matter, remains as yet undiscovered. In such a case, NSs should contain both, baryonic and dark matter. We argue that depending on the nature of the dark matter and in certain circumstances, the two matter components would form a mixture inside NSs that could trigger further changes, some of them observable. The very existence of NSs constrains the nature and interactions of dark matter in the universe.

We propose a model for dibaryon stars which takes into account the internal structure of nucleons via a fuzzy bag model. This choice of nuclear model avoids nucleon self-energy divergences as in the MIT model, and also considers a softer bag surface, thus eliminating the disadvantage of an abrupt transition between the interior of the bag and the external medium. We obtain results for the equation of state and for the mass-radius relation for the dibaryon star. Our results indicate a smaller maximum mass for dibaryon stars as compared to neutron stars, mainly due to the relaxation of the interior Fermi pressure in the dibaryon-populated star core.

AbstractPulsar timing has proven to be a wonderful tool with which to study neutron stars, providing insights into their ages, distances, proper motions, magnetic field strengths, internal structure, binary histories and evolution, and for tests of General Relativity. Here I describe how to optimise strategies for millisecond pulsar timing to enable the highest timing precision.
