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…

Quantifying uncertainties and correlations in the nuclear-matter equation of state
C. Drischler, J. A. Melendez, R. J. Furnstahl +1
We perform statistically rigorous uncertainty quantification (UQ) for chiral effective field theory (EFT) applied to infinite nuclear matter up to twice nuclear saturation densi…

How well do we know the neutron-matter equation of state at the densities inside neutron stars? A Bayesian approach with correlated uncertainties
C. Drischler, R. J. Furnstahl, J. A. Melendez +1
We introduce a new framework for quantifying correlated uncertainties of the infinite-matter equation of state derived from chiral effective field theory (EFT). Bayesian machine…
