Abstract
The X-ray astronomy mission eXTP (enhanced X-ray Timing Polarimetry) is designed to study matter under extreme conditions of density, gravity and magnetism. Primary
goals are the determination of the equation of state (EoS) of matter at supranuclear density,
the physics in extremely strong magnetic fields, the study of accretion in strong-field gravity
(SFG) regime. Primary targets include isolated and binary neutron stars, strong magneticfield systems like magnetars, and stellar-mass and supermassive black holes. In this paper
we report about key observations and simulations with eXTP on the primary objectives
involving accretion under SFG regimes and determination of NS-EoS
