Description

I will describe our current understanding of neutron stars and identify observables that could reveal new physics beyond the standard model. In the next decade, multi-messenger observations of neutron stars, neutron star mergers, and core-collapse supernovae will provide new insights into neutron stars' structure, dynamics, and thermal evolution. I will outline how this can help discover or constrain the particle nature of dark matter.
