Same as in Figure 3 but for the CS model. Again we conclude that constraints from GW170817 point to softer EOSs with lower radii, but the results from NICER point to stiffer EOSs with higher radii. The final posterior distribution, conditional on the three different measurements combined, is then very similar to the distribution with only information from the 2.14 M⊙ pulsar included.
