Framework for phase transitions between the Maxwell and Gibbs constructions at finite temperature

Constantinos Constantinou, Mirco Guerrini, Tianqi Zhao +2

The characteristics of the hadron-to-quark first-order phase transition differ depending on whether charge neutrality is locally or globally fulfilled. In -equilibrated matter,…

Characterizing the nuclear models informed by PREX and CREX: a view from Bayesian inference

Tianqi Zhao, Zidu Lin, Bharat Kumar +2

New measurements of the weak charge density distributions of Ca and Pb challenge existing nuclear models. In the post-PREX-CREX era, it is unclear if current models…

Framework for phase transitions between the Maxwell and Gibbs constructions

Constantinos Constantinou, Tianqi Zhao, Sophia Han +1

By taking the nucleon-to-quark phase transition within a neutron star as an example, we present a thermodynamically consistent method to calculate the equation of state of ambient…

Dense Nuclear Matter Equation of State from Heavy-Ion Collisions

Agnieszka Sorensen, Kshitij Agarwal, Kyle W. Brown +133

The nuclear equation of state (EOS) is at the center of numerous theoretical and experimental efforts in nuclear physics. With advances in microscopic theories for nuclear interact…

Long Range Plan: Dense matter theory for heavy-ion collisions and neutron stars

Alessandro Lovato, Travis Dore, Robert D. Pisarski +61

Since the release of the 2015 Long Range Plan in Nuclear Physics, major events have occurred that reshaped our understanding of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and nuclear matter at l…

Impact of the equation of state on - and - mode oscillations of neutron stars

Athul Kunjipurayil, Tianqi Zhao, Bharat Kumar +2

We investigate the impact of the neutron-star matter equation of state on the - and -mode oscillations of neutron stars obtained within the Cowling approximation and linear…
