Abstract
We study the properties of hot rapidly rotating neutron stars using various equations of state based on the Brueckner–Hartree–Fock approach at finite temperature. The temperature dependence of gravitational mass, equatorial radius, Kepler frequency, moment of inertia are analysed in detail and universal relations are examined.
