We construct new effective interactions using the relativistic mean-field model with the isoscalar- and isovector-meson mixing. Taking into account the results of neutron skin thickness of $^{208}$Pb and $^{48}$Ca by the PREX-2 and CREX experiments as well as the particle flow data in heavy-ion collisions, the observed mass of PSR J0740+6620, and the tidal deformability of a neutron star from...
The equation of state (EOS) for dense matter is one of the crucial ingredients in numerical simulations for astrophysical phenomena, such as core-collapse supernovae, cooling of nascent proto-neutron stars, and binary neutron star mergers. While considerable efforts have been devoted to understanding the dense-matter EOS from terrestrial experiments, astrophysical observations, and theoretical...
Abstract: With recent advances in astronomical observations, major progress has been made in determining the pressure of neutron star matter at high density. This pressure is constrained by the neutron star deformability, determined from gravitational waves emitted in a neutron-star merger, and measurements of radii for two neutron stars using a new X-ray observatory on the International...
