Pairing effects on spinodal decomposition of asymmetric nuclear matter
Stefano Burrello, Maria Colonna, Francesco Matera
We investigate the impact of pairing correlations on the behavior of unstable asymmetric nuclear matter at low temperature. We focus on the relative role of the pairing interaction…
Theoretical predictions of experimental observables sensitive to the symmetry energy: Results of the SMF transport model
Maria Colonna, Virgil Baran, Massimo Di Toro
In the framework of mean-field based transport approaches, we discuss recent results concerning heavy ion reactions between charge asymmetric systems, from low up to intermediate e…
Isoscalar-vector interaction and hybrid quark core in massive neutron stars
G. Y. Shao, M. Colonna, M. Di Toro +2
The hadron-quark phase transition in the core of massive neutron stars is studied with a newly constructed two-phase model. For nuclear matter, a nonlinear Walecka type model with…
Bifurcations in Boltzmann-Langevin One Body dynamics for fermionic systems
P. Napolitani, M. Colonna
We investigate the occurrence of bifurcations in the dynamical trajectories depicting central nuclear collisions at Fermi energies. The quantitative description of the reaction dyn…
Boltzmann-Langevin One-Body dynamics for fermionic systems
P. Napolitani, M. Colonna
A full implementation of the Boltzmann-Langevin equation for fermionic systems is introduced in a transport model for dissipative collisions among heavy nuclei. Fluctuations are in…
Fluctuations and Symmetry Energy in Nuclear Fragmentation Dynamics
M. Colonna
Within a dynamical description of nuclear fragmentation, based on the liquid-gas phase transition scenario, we explore the relation between neutron-proton density fluctuations and…
