Fig. 36 — Mass-radius relations for two EOSs with similar stellar properties in the intermediate mass range around $1.6 M_{⊙}$ where the two mass-radius relations cross. Bars at $1.6 M_{⊙}$ indicate the maximum deviation of the estimated radius inferred from a single GW detection of a low-mass binary NS merger. Using the extrapolation procedure described in Bauswein et al. (2014) the two EOSs can clearly be distinguished. Boxes illustrate the maximum deviation of the estimated properties of the maximum-mass configuration. (Image reproduced with permission from Bauswein et al. 2014, copyright by APS)
