An Extended Chiral Mean-Field Model with Medium-Modified Thermal Mesons for Hot and Dense Hadronic Matter
Micheal Kahangirwe, Rajesh Kumar, Joaquin Grefa +5
In this conference proceeding we review an extension of the Chiral Mean Field (CMF) model that consistently incorporates interacting thermal mesons with self-consistent in-medium m…
Strongly coupled quark matter in neutron stars and their mergers
Konstantin Maslov, Ralf Rapp, Joaquin Grefa +2
The discovery of the strongly-coupled quark-gluon plasma (sQGP) in high-energy heavy-ion collisions has revealed remarkable properties of matter at high temperature, with transport…
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…
S-wave kaon condensation in neutron-star matter within a chiral model framework with dynamical meson masses
Yuhan Wang, Rajesh Kumar, Joaquin Grefa +4
We investigate s-wave kaon condensation in dense matter and neutron stars within the updated Chiral Mean Field model with an improved meson description (mCMF), which incorporates d…
Relativistic mean-field model with density- and isospin-density-dependent couplings
Gabriel Frohaug, Konstantin Maslov, Veronica Dexheimer +4
We present a new hadronic EoS with hyperons built within the relativistic mean-field (RMF) formalism with baryon-density- and isospin-density-dependent couplings. Motivated by micr…
Interacting mesons as degrees of freedom in a chiral model
Rajesh Kumar, Joaquin Grefa, Konstantin Maslov +5
We study the equation of state of hot and dense hadronic matter using an extended Chiral Mean Field (CMF) model framework where the addition is the inclusion of interactions of the…
