Abstract

Two new equations of state obtained for matter constituting isothermal neutron star core by using isentropic nature of matter for the equalities Γ=Γ2 and Γ=Γ3 (where Γ's are usual adiabatic exponents) have been utilised to discuss the internal temperature of core. The temperature of matter has been obtained asT=T a(P+E)/ϱ. Variation ofT/T a(≡t) with energy density has been discussed for these new equations of state and some standard equations of state for nuclear matter.
