Studying the parameters of the extended $\sigma$-$\omega$ model for neutron star matter

2020 
In this work we study the parameters of the extended $\sigma$-$\omega$ model for neutron star matter by a Bayesian analysis on state-of-the-art multi-messenger astronomy observations, namely mass, radius and tidal deformabilities. We have considered three parameters of the model, the Landau mass $m_L$, the nuclear compressibility $K_0$, and the value of the symmetry energy $S_0$, all at saturation density $n_0$. As a result, we are able to estimate the best values of the Landau mass of $m_L \approx 0.73$ GeV, whereas the values of $K_0$ and $S_0$ fall within already known empirical values. Furthermore, for neutron stars we find the most probable value of 13 km $
