Equations of state for supernovae and compact stars

M Oertel, M Hempel, T Klähn, S Typel - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2017 - APS
A review is given of various theoretical approaches for the equation of state (EoS) of dense
matter, relevant for the description of core-collapse supernovae, compact stars, and compact …

Nucleon-nucleon correlations, short-lived excitations, and the quarks within

O Hen, GA Miller, E Piasetzky, LB Weinstein - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2017 - APS
This article reviews our current understanding of how the internal quark structure of a
nucleon bound in nuclei differs from that of a free nucleon. The interpretation of …

Chiral effective field theory and nuclear forces

R Machleidt, DR Entem - Physics Reports, 2011 - Elsevier
We review how nuclear forces emerge from low-energy QCD via chiral effective field theory.
The presentation is accessible to the non-specialist. At the same time, we also provide …

Relativistic nuclear many-body theory

BD Serot, JD Walecka - Recent Progress in Many-Body Theories: Volume …, 1992 - Springer
Nonrelativistic models of nuclear systems have provided important insight into nuclear
physics. In future experiments, nuclear systems will be examined under extreme conditions …

The bonn meson-exchange model for the nucleon—nucleon interaction

R Machleidt, K Holinde, C Elster - Physics Reports, 1987 - Elsevier
We present a comprehensive field-theoretical meson-exchange model for the nucleon-

The quantum molecular dynamics approach, an n-body theory to describe heavy ion
reactions between 100 MeV/n and 2 GeV/n is reviewed. We start out with a survey of the …

Recent progress and new challenges in isospin physics with heavy-ion reactions

BA Li, LW Chen, CM Ko - Physics Reports, 2008 - Elsevier
The ultimate goal of studying isospin physics via heavy-ion reactions with neutron-rich,

Recent progress in quantum hadrodynamics

BD Serot, JD Walecka - International Journal of Modern Physics E, 1997 - World Scientific
Quantum hadrodynamics (QHD) is a framework for describing the nuclear many-body
problem as a relativistic system of baryons and mesons. Motivation is given for the utility of …
