Results Observational Constraints PSR J1748+2246ad (716Hz) Keplerian frequency maximum rotation rate a neutron star can sustain before mass at the equator becomes unbound due to centrifugal force. Lattimer et al. Neutron stars were found to form well below the 716 Hz constraint curve proposed by Lattimer, indicating that a more conservative rotational limit may be necessary.

Summary & Future Works Summary Rotation alters the internal structure of neutron stars, and thus rotational effects should be taken into account. For spin frequencies below 500 Hz, the differences from the non-rotating case are minor typically within 1%. Nonetheless, considering rotation is preferable for accurate constraints. Moreover, at frequencies exceeding 500 Hz, rotation induces significant structural changes, making its inclusion essential. Therefore, future observational constraints should also incorporate rotational effects where relevant. Future Works 1) Nuclear Matter Properties 2) Make more conservative 716 Hz constraints with various EoS Mass or Radius change ?0 (Incompressibility) ?0 (Skewness) ? (Slope) New 716Hz Constraints! 16
