Neutron star properties from modern meson-exchange potential models

Abstract

We calculate the total mass, radius, moment of inertia and surface gravitational redshift for neutron stars using various equations of state. The latter are derived from recent meson-exchange potential models, employing both a relativistic and a non-relativistic Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approach.
