Pressures at the densities ﹩n_{s}﹩ (open triangles), ﹩1.5n_{s}﹩ (open circles), and ﹩2n_{s}﹩ (filled circles) as a function of the moment of inertia for 1.34 ﹩M_{\odot }﹩ stars. Solid curves show the relations between P and I derived by combining eqs. (12) and (14). Dashed curves include the errors in these fits. Equations of states and their labels are described in Lattimer & Prakash (2001).
