Study looks at data from the third observing run of the Virgo and Advanced LIGO gravitational wave observatories.

It found that there can be no more than 2,000 observable mergers involving a neutron star up to 70% of the Sun ’s mass.

If we can observe low-mass neutron stars, it would further constrain the TOV parameters and improve our understanding of neutron stars.
