Abstract
Eigenfrequencies of radial pulsations of ''slowly'' rotating neutron s tars are calculated in a general relativistic formalism given by Chand rasekhar & Friedman. It is found that the square of the frequencies ar e always a decreasing function of the central density of the neutron s tar. The decrease of the squared frequency is sensitive to the equatio n of state of neutron star matter, and is illustrated using realistic models.
