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…

Bulk Viscosity of Two-Flavor Color Superconducting Quark Matter in Neutron Star Mergers

Mark Alford, Arus Harutyunyan, Armen Sedrakian +1

This work investigates the bulk viscosity of warm, dense, neutrino-transparent, color-superconducting quark matter, where damping of density oscillations in the kHz frequency range…

Confronting new NICER mass-radius measurements with phase transition in dense matter and twin compact stars

Jia Jie Li, Armen Sedrakian, Mark Alford

The (re)analysis of data on the X-ray emitting pulsars PSR J0030+0451 and J0740+6620, as well as new results on PSR J0437-4715 and J1231-1411, are confronted with the predictions o…

Bulk viscosity of two-color superconducting quark matter in neutron star mergers

Mark Alford, Arus Harutyunyan, Armen Sedrakian +1

We study the bulk viscosity of moderately hot and dense, neutrino-transparent color superconducting quark matter arising from weak-interaction-driven direct URCA processes. The qua…

Hybrid star models in the light of new multi-messenger data

Jia Jie Li, Armen Sedrakian, Mark Alford

Recent astrophysical mass inferences of compact stars HESS J1731-347 and PSR J0952-0607, with extremely small and large masses respectively, as well as the measurement of the neutr…
