Figure 10: The relation between the mass and the circumferential radius of a spherical NS with
piecewise polytropic EOS for which parameters are described in Table 4. For comparison, the curve
for the polytropic EOS with in cgs units is also plotted (dotted curve).
The figure is taken from [107]. Note that if the observational result of [51] (if the presence of an
NS) is confirmed by 100%, some of the soft EOS displayed here will be ruled out.
