Description
A survey is given on the issue of strangeness contributions to the composition of dense matter in the core of neutron stars. The first part of this presentation reviews empirical constraints on the neutron star equation-of-state. The second part focuses primarily on our present understanding of hyperon-nuclear three-body forces and their role in providing a possible solution to the so-called "hyperon puzzle".
