TOV Mass Limit --- V.T39
For any equation of state satisfying causality (c_s = 0), there exists a maximum neutron star mass M_TOV ~ 2.0-2.3 M_sun above which no static TOV solution exists.

Claim boundary
This page reports a Registry-backed internal result surface. It is not an external validation claim, a scientific consensus claim, or independent acceptance.
Curation rationale
- physics-facing terms: mass, neutron
- candidate is better handled as evidence for an inferred existing public surface
