Abstract

The aim of the present work is to try to find an equation of state (EoS) directly from the solution of the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff (TOV) equations subject to known observational constraints to the maximum mass and corresponding radius and baryonic mass. Hence, instead of solving the TOV equations with an EoS that enters as input, we obtain an EoS as output.
