Constraining neutron-star matter with microscopic and macroscopic collisions
Constraining neutron-star matter with microscopic and macroscopic collisions
Interpreting high-energy, astrophysical phenomena, such as supernova explosions or neutron-star collisions, requires a robust understanding of matter at supranuclear densities. However, our knowledge about dense matter explored in the cores of neutron stars remains limited. Fortunately, dense matter is not only probed in astrophysical observations, but also in terrestrial heavy-ion …
