QCD equations of state and speed of sound in neutron stars

Abstract Neutron stars are cosmic laboratories to study dense matter in quantum chromodynamics (QCD). The observable mass-radius relations of neutron stars are determined by QCD equations of state and can reflect the properties of QCD phase transitions. In the last decade, there have been historical...
