Abstract
AbstractThe equation of state (EOS) is still the big unknown in the physics of neutron stars. An accurate measurement of both the mass and the radius of a neutron star would put severe constraints on the range of possible EOSs. I discuss how the parameters of the oscillation modes of a neutron star, measured from the emitted gravitational waves, can in principle be used to infer its mass and radius, and thus reveal its EOS.
