Title: Nuclear Masses and Neutron Stars


DEPOSIT INFORMATION
Description: Seven different equations of state and chemical
compositions of the outer crust of nonaccreting cold neutron stars
(T=0 and beta-equilibrium), calculated with the model by Baym, Pethick
and Sutherland (Astrophys. J. 170, 299 (1971)) which was extended by
higher order corrections as described in Pearson et al. (Phys. Rev. C
83, 065810 (2011)). The different equations of state are based on
different theoretical nuclear models for which the references are
given in the main article. In all calculations, the Ame2012 atomic
mass evaluation by Wang et al. (Chin. Phys. C 36, 1603 (2012)) and the
new measurements of the ISOLTRAP collaboration (Wolf et al.,
Phys. Rev. L. 110, 041101 (2013)) are used.

Every file contains a table with the following columns:
mu_b [MeV]: baryon chemical potential including rest mass
mu_e [MeV]: electron chemical potential including rest mass
rho [g/cm^3]: relativistic mass density (internal energy density/c^2)
P [dyne/cm^2]: total pressure
n_b [1/cm^3]: baryon number density
El. []: chemical symbol of the groundstate nucleus
A []: mass number of the groundstate nucleus
Z []: charge or proton number of the groundstate nucleus
N []: neutron number of the groundstate nucleus
Gamma []: adiabatic index

The first two lines of each file contain the header. The format of the
output which was used for the following lines is (Fortran77):
f10.6,f11.6,3e14.6,a4,3i5,f10.6
