- Abstract
This paper was written in memory of Joao da Providência who passed away in November 2021. It is a pursuit of works developed recently by Joao, Steven and inspired by our many years of discussions. Neutron stars are described within the quark–meson coupling Bogoliubov (QMC Bogoliubov) nuclear model which includes u, d and s quarks. The model is improved by including the ω - b 3 mixing term so that constraints imposed by ab-initio chiral effective field theory pure neutron matter calculations are satisfied. The effects of the symmetry energy slope on the structure and properties of neutron stars are investigated. In particular, the effect on the radius, on the particle fractions, and on the onset of the nuclear direct Urca processes is discussed. It is shown that the improved model is in accordance with GW170817 observations, and that the constrained symmetry energy does not allow for nucleonic direct Urca processes inside neutron stars. Within the present model, no hyperons nucleate inside neutron stars.
