Can the Central Compact Object in HESS J1731–347 Be Indeed the Lightest Neutron Star Observed?
The exceptionally low mass of $0.7{7}_{-0.17}^{+0.2}{M}_{\odot }$ for the central compact object (CCO) XMMU J173203.3–344518 (XMMU J1732) in the supernova remnant (SNR) HESS J1731–347 challenges standard neutron star (NS) formation models. The nearby post–asymptotic giant branch star IRAS 17287–3443...
