Gravitational Wave Generation in Rotating Compact Stars
... We assume that the proto-neutron star is initially composed of baryonic matter, and leptons. The equation of state in the hadronic regime considers the contribution of the complete baryonic octet in a relativistic mean field approach [5]. This equation of state is connected to the bag model equation ...
