Description
Based on recent experimental and theoretical hints on possible formation of a resonant four-neutron system we study effects of appearance of such a cluster in neutron rich baryon matter inside NSs. For this purpose we employ a relativistic mean field approach which includes nucleons, $\Delta$-baryons as well as light nuclear clusters. Our analysis demonstrates that tetraneutrons existing as the Bose-Einstein condensate can affect the equation of state of cold baryonic matter and observable characteristics of neutrons stars. Tetraneutron driven suppression of $\Delta$-baryons is another important result of our study. Influence of tetraneutrons on formation of superconducting phase is also discussed.
