Neutrino absorption in two-flavor color-superconducting quark matter

Mark G. Alford, Liam Brodie, Michael Buballa +3

We calculate the absorption mean free paths of electron and muon neutrinos in two-flavor color-superconducting (2SC) quark matter in the density and temperature range that is relev…

Nonparametric extensions of nuclear equations of state: probing the breakdown scale of relativistic mean-field theory

Isaac Legred, Liam Brodie, Alexander Haber +2

Phenomenological calculations of the properties of dense matter, such as relativistic mean-field theories, represent a pathway to predicting the microscopic and macroscopic propert…

Parity-doubled nucleons can rapidly cool neutron stars

Liam Brodie, Robert D. Pisarski

In confined hadronic matter, the spontaneous breaking and restoration of chiral symmetry can be described by considering nucleons, , and excited states of opposite pari…

Tabulated Equations of State From Models Informed by Chiral Effective Field Theory

Mark G. Alford, Liam Brodie, Alexander Haber +1

We construct four equation of state (EoS) tables, tabulated over a range of temperatures, densities, and charge fractions, relevant for neutron star applications such as simulation…

Nuclear and Hybrid Equations of State in Light of the Low-Mass Compact Star in HESS J1731-347

Liam Brodie, Alexander Haber

We sample over relativistic mean-field theories constrained by chiral effective field theory and properties of isospin-symmetric nuclear matter and test them against known st…

Relativistic mean-field theories for neutron-star physics based on chiral effective field theory

Mark G. Alford, Liam Brodie, Alexander Haber +1

We describe and implement a procedure for determining the couplings of a Relativistic Mean-Field Theory (RMFT) that is optimized for application to neutron star phenomenology. In t…
