Abstract

Assuming that a Neutron star has a non-constant density profile, we postulate that there exists a point beneath the surface where the pressure is high enough to condense the neutrons at the core into a black hole. We discuss a numerical calculation and a mathematical proof of such a possibility and conjecture ways to test such a hypothesis. Additionally, we theorize about the mechanics to maintain a shell of neutrons around a black hole.
