      Coley, Alan; van den Hoogen, Robert; McNutt, David Duncan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-07)
      In theories such as teleparallel gravity and its extensions, the frame basis replaces the metric tensor as the primary object of study. A choice of coordinate system, frame basis, and spin-connection must be made to obtain ...

      Kurkela, Eero Aleksi (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      In this contribution, I discuss the utility that perturbative QCD offers in studying the matter in the cores of neutron stars. I discuss the reasons why perturbative QCD can constrain the equation of state at densities far ...
