- Title
The maximum mass of neutron stars.
- Authors
Srinivasan, G.
- Abstract
The choice of a suitable topic for this talk posed a problem for me. Should I talk about some work I have done recently? Or, should I talk about something which is not yet resolved, but of great contemporary significance? The latter has the advantage that it might inspire some of the younger persons in the audience to think about it. And that is what I am going to do. The topic I have chosen is the "Maximum Mass of Neutron Stars". This may appear at first sight to be an academic question, an esoteric one at that (!); but this is not so.
