Abstract

We find constraints on minimum and maximum mass of ordinary neutron stars imposed by their early evolution (protoneutron star stage). We calculate models of protoneutron stars using a realistic standard equation of state of hot, dense matter valid for both supranuclear and subnuclear densities. Results for different values of the nuclear incompressibility are presented.
