The mass limit of neutron star has still remained a mystery. The existing Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff (TOV) equation for calculating the limit always gives different values, by introducing different assumptions and having been predicted like 0.7 Mo, 3.2 Mo, 3.6 Mo, where Mo = 1.98 × 1030 Kg. There is a need of some better technique to adopt other than TOV relation to seek out the value. In this paper, a new relation between the mass of the collapsing star and its average density ρ′ has… CONTINUE READING
