Description
This talk will describe the continuing development of a consistent
picture of the liquid interiors of neutron stars, driven by three
recent advances: observations of heavy neutron stars with masses ~2.0
solar masses; determinations of masses and radii simultaneously for an
increasing number of neutron stars; and an emerging understanding in
QCD of how nuclear matter can turn into deconfined quark matter in the
interior.
