Constraints on the nuclear symmetry energy from asymmetric-matter calculations with chiral NN and 3N interactions
R. Somasundaram, C. Drischler, I. Tews +1
The nuclear symmetry energy is a key quantity in nuclear (astro)physics. It describes the isospin dependence of the nuclear equation of state (EOS), which is commonly assumed to be…

Nuclear and neutron-star matter from local chiral interactions
D. Lonardoni, I. Tews, S. Gandolfi +1
We report a quantum Monte Carlo calculation of the equation of state of symmetric nuclear matter using local interactions derived from chiral effective field theory up to next-to-n…

From the microscopic to the macroscopic world: from nucleons to neutron stars
S. Gandolfi, J. Lippuner, A. W. Steiner +3
Recent observations of neutron-star properties, in particular the recent detection of gravitational waves emitted from binary neutron stars, GW 170817, open the way to put strong c…
