Neutron-star radii based on realistic nuclear interactions
The existence of neutron stars with requires the strong stiffness
of the equation of state (EoS) of neutron-star matter. We introduce a
multi-pomeron exchange potential (MPP) working universally among 3- and
4-baryons to stiffen the EoS. Its strength is restricted by analyzing the
nucleus-nucleus scattering with the G-matrix folding model. The EoSs are
derived using the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock (BHF) and the cluster variational
method (CVM) with the nuclear interactions ESC and AV18. The mass-radius
relations are derived by solving the Tolmann-Oppenheimer-Volkoff (TOV)
equation, where the maximum masses over are obtained on the basis of
the terrestrial data. Neutron-star radii at a typical mass are
predicted to be km. The uncertainty of calculated radii is
mainly from the ratio of 3- and 4-pomeron coupling constants, which cannot be
fixed by any terrestrial experiment. Though values of are not
influenced by hyperon-mixing effects, finely-observed values for them indicate
degrees of EoS softening by hyperon mixing in the region of
. If is less than about 12.4 km, the
softening of EoS by hyperon mixing has to be weak. Useful information can be
expected by the space mission NICER offering precise measurements for
neutron-star radii within .Comment: 8 pages, 7 figure

Slow Slip Events and Time-Dependent Variations in Locking Beneath Lower Cook Inlet of the Alaska-Aleutian Subduction Zone
We identify a series of abrupt changes in GPS site velocities in Lower Cook Inlet, Alaska, in late 2004, early 2010, and late 2011. The site motions during each time period are nearly linear. The surface deformations inferred from GPS for pre-2004 and 2010–2011 are similar to each other, as are 2004–2010 and post-2011. We estimate the slip distribution on the Alaska-Aleutian subduction plate interface accounting for upper plate block rotations and interpret this toggling between two deformation patterns as caused by transient slip. We find that by allowing negative slip deficit rates (i.e., creep rates in excess of relative plate motion), the data in Lower Cook Inlet are fit significantly better during pre-2004 and 2010–2011, suggesting the occurrence of slow slip events (SSEs) there during those time periods. The earlier SSE lasted at least 9 years (observations in that area began in 1995) with Mw ~7.8. The latter SSE had almost the same area as the earlier one and a duration of ~2 years with Mw ~7.2. During 2004–2010 and post-2011, the inversions result in only positive slip deficit rates (i.e., locking) in Lower Cook Inlet. Slip rates are nearly constant during the Lower Cook Inlet SSEs, and the events start and stop abruptly. Both of these properties contrast with observations of SSEs in Upper Cook Inlet and elsewhere. The Lower Cook Inlet SSEs are consistent with previously proposed duration-magnitude scaling laws and demonstrate that slow slip events can last as long as a decade
