In the last 25 years, an extensive body of work has developed various equation of state independent - or (approximately) universal - relations that allow for the inference of neutron star parameters from gravitational wave observations. These works, however, have mostly been focused on singular neutron stars, while our observational efforts at the present, and in the near future, will be focused on binary neutron star (BNS) mergers. In light of these circumstances, the last five years have also given rise to more attempts at developing universal relations that relate BNS pre-merger neutron...
