contents We apply the point particle EFT approach to a compact star to systematically compute dynamical tidal love numbers for various non-rotating compact objects, extending the treatment of {arXiv:2307.10391[hep-th], arXiv:2407.08327 [gr-qc]}. We calculate the scattering amplitude in Black Hole Perturbation Theory(BPHT) for \textit{arbitrary} non-rotating compact stars using the Mano-Suzuki-Takasugi(MST) method with non zero surface reflectivity and match it with that obtained from point particle EFT order by order in the low frequency expansion. This sets up a systematic framework for extracting the static and dynamical tidal love numbers(TLNs) to any order in the multipole expansion. In this paper, we employ the technique to compute the Next-to-Next-to Leading Order TLN upto a universal constant and its Renormalization Group equation for non-viscous Neutron stars and Neutron stars admixed with Bosonic or Fermionic dark matter.
