The presence and order of QCD phase transitions from gravitational-wave observations of neutron star mergers

Paul D. Lasky, Alexander Clevinger, Andre G. da Silva +2

Gravitational-wave observations of neutron star mergers allows us to probe the dense portion of the nuclear equation of state. We develop a formalism for testing the existence and…

Studying the QCD Matter produced in Heavy-Ion Collisions using the MUSES Calculation Engine

Johannes Jahan, Kevin P. Pala, Yumu Yang +42

The equation of state of hot and dense matter is essential for describing heavy-ion collisions at all collision energies. Here, we explore the capabilities of the latest version of…

Investigating the Impact of Higher-Order Phase Transitions in Binary Neutron-Star Mergers

P. Hammond, A. Clevinger, M. Albino +10

In this paper we investigate quark deconfinement in neutrons stars and their mergers, focusing on the effects of higher orders for the phase transition between hadronic and quark m…

Recurring region for neutron-star observables

Alexander Clevinger, Zidu Lin, Milena Albino +3

In this letter, we report a novel, somewhat analytical way to produce equations of state (EOSs) that generate particular values of neutron star mass, radius, and tidal deformabilit…

Building Neutron Stars with the MUSES Calculation Engine

Mateus Reinke Pelicer, Nikolas Cruz-Camacho, Carlos Conde +25

Exploring the equation of state of dense matter is an essential part of interpreting the observable properties of neutron stars. We present here the first results for dense matter…

Dense-matter equation of state at zero & finite temperature

Alexander Clevinger, Veronica Dexheimer, Jeffrey Peterson

At high density, matter is expected to undergo a phase transition to deconfined quark matter. Although the density at which it happens and the strength of the transition are still…

Effects of hyperon potentials and symmetry energy in quark deconfinement

Rajesh Kumar, Krishna Aryal, Alexander Clevinger +1

In this letter we discuss how the results of recent nuclear experiments that correspond to measurements at low densities can affect the equation of state at large densities and tem…

Theoretical and Experimental Constraints for the Equation of State of Dense and Hot Matter

Rajesh Kumar, Veronica Dexheimer, Johannes Jahan +57

This review aims at providing an extensive discussion of modern constraints relevant for dense and hot strongly interacting matter. It includes theoretical first-principle results…
