Neutron stars constitute an important class of extreme relativistic objects allowing one to examine the theories of gravitation in the strong field regime. Their supranuclear densities stemming from their large masses and small radii make them also interesting laboratories for matter under extreme conditions which is modelled by different equations of states (EoS). Such extreme conditions make the determination of EoS a difficult problem in nuclear physics but, on the other hand, the studies in this direction may allow, for example, to constrain even dark matter models in a way that is inaccessible to terrestrial or cosmological probes. We study the structure of neutron stars in a special class of the scalar-tensor theories for three realistic EoS and the Higgs-like potential. Using the observational bounds on the mass and the radius of the neutron stars, we put some limits on the parameters of the model.

New approach to conserved charges of generic gravity in AdS spacetimes
Altas, Emel; Tekin, Bayram (American Physical Society (APS), 2019-02-12)
Starting from a divergence-free rank-4 tensor of which the trace is the cosmological Einstein tensor, we give a construction of conserved charges in Einstein's gravity and its higher derivative extensions for asymptotically anti-de Sitter spacetimes. The current yielding the charge is explicitly gauge invariant, and the charge expression involves the linearized Riemann tensor at the boundary. Hence, to compute the mass and angular momenta in these spacetimes, one just needs to compute the linearized Riemann...
Determining the asymmetry in supernova explosions by studying the radial velocities of OB runaway stars
Dinçel, Baha; Yerli, Sinan Kaan; Ankay, Aşkın; Department of Physics (2012)
Understanding the asymmetry in core collapse supernova explosions is pointed out by various astrophysicists as it is the key factor in determining the observational properties of the pulsars. The initial kick given by the ex- plosion to the pulsar affects its spin period and space velocity. Up to now, although the observations do not show a direct relation between the observational features of the pulsar and its space velocity, they show a clear relation between the spin period and the magnetic field streng...
Tight binding investigation of graphene nanostructures under magnetic field
Yalçın, Fırat; Toffoli, Hande; Department of Physics (2019)
Electrons moving under the effects of a two dimensional periodic potential and a magnetic field perpendicular to this two dimensional plane has been the focus of many different studies for a long time. The interplay between the two length scales in this problem, lattice constant and the characteristic magnetic length, results in interesting phenomena such as the Hofstadter's butterfly. The bulk of the studies done so far has focused on uniform magnetic fields. The only requirement for the vector potential i...
Investigation of the structural properties of low dimensional nanostructures : molecular dynamics simulations
Özdamar, Burak; Erkoç, Şakir; Department of Physics (2013)
This study aims to investigate the structural and thermodynamic properties of nanostructures which are generated from different atoms and geometries. The nanostructures in question are boron nitride nanoparticles, silicon nanowires along with sawtooth-like graphene nanoribbons. The goal is to calculate the specific heat values of boron nitride nanoparticles while the mechanical properties of the other nanostructures are investigated under uniaxial strain. The structural behaviors of these generated nanopart...
Accretion in strong field gravity with eXTP
De Rosa, Alessandra; et. al. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-02-01)
In this paper we describe the potential of the enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry (eXTP) mission for studies related to accretion flows in the strong field gravity regime around both stellar-mass and supermassive black-holes. eXTP has the unique capability of using advanced “spectral-timing-polarimetry” techniques to analyze the rapid variations with three orthogonal diagnostics of the flow and its geometry, yielding unprecedented insight into the inner accreting regions, the effects of strong field grav...
