Left: 90% credible interval (CI) region for the neutron star (NS) mass-radius posterior P(R|M) is plotted for the NL, NL-σ cut, NL + PREX-II, and NL-σ cut + PREX-II. The gray area indicates the constraints obtained from the binary components of GW170817, with their respective 90% and 50% credible intervals. Additionally, the plot includes the 1σ (68%) CI for the 2D mass-radius posterior distributions of the millisecond pulsars PSR J0030 + 0451, shown in in cyan and yellow (Riley et al. 2019; Miller et al. 2019) and PSR J0740 + 6620, shown in in orange and peru (Riley et al. 2021; Miller et al. 2021), based on NICER X-ray observations. Furthermore, we display the latest NICER measurements for the mass and radius of PSR J0437-4715 (Choudhury et al. 2024) (lilac color). Right: 90% CI region for the mass-tidal deformability posterior P(Λ|M) for the same models. The blue bars represent the tidal deformability constraints at 1.36 M.
