Pairing effects on spinodal decomposition of asymmetric nuclear matter

Stefano Burrello, Maria Colonna, Francesco Matera

We investigate the impact of pairing correlations on the behavior of unstable asymmetric nuclear matter at low temperature. We focus on the relative role of the pairing interaction…

Heavy Flavor in Medium Momentum Evolution: Langevin vs Boltzmann

Santosh K. Das, Francesco Scardina, Salvatore Plumari +1

The propagation of heavy quarks in the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) has been often treated within the framework of the Langevin equation (LV), i.e. assuming the momentum transfer is sm…

The many facets of the (non relativistic) Nuclear Equation of State

G. Giuliani, H. Zheng, A. Bonasera

A nucleus is a quantum many body system made of strongly interacting Fermions, protons and neutrons (nucleons). This produces a rich Nuclear Equation of State whose knowledge is cr…
