Abstract
We present a new survey of the radial oscillation modes of neutron stars. T his study complements and corrects earlier studies of radial oscillations. We present an extensive list of frequencies for the most common equations o f state and some more recent ones. In order to check the accuracy, we use t wo different numerical schemes which yield the same results. The stimulatio n for this work comes from the need of the groups that evolve the full nonl inear Einstein equations to have reliable results from perturbation theory for comparison.
