| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Neutron stars, which form via supernovae, are in extreme conditions. The density inside the stars becomes significantly over the standard nuclear density. So, via terrestrial nuclear experiments it is very difficult to make an constraint on the interior information of neutron stars. Thus, we focus on the oscillations of neutron stars to extract the interior information. By comparing the quasi-periodic oscillations observed in the giant flares with the crustal torsional oscillations, we set out to get the constraint on the nuclear saturation parameters. In particular, we consider the oscillation in the bubble phase. If our scenario is correct, our results show the evidence of the pasta structure in the neutron star crust observationally.
