Dr Hans-Josef Schulze (INFN Sezione di Catania)24/03/2014, 09:10The main features of the EOS of neutron star matter are reviewed, comprising nucleonic, hyperonic, and quark matter contributions. The focus in on the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock theoretical method, but also other approaches will be regarded.Go to contribution page

Prof. Pawel Danielewicz (East Lansing, MSU (USA))24/03/2014, 09:50Constraints on the nuclear equation of state, following from heavy ion collisions and from structure, are reviewed. The collisions produce matter transiently reaching densities few times the normal. Isolating observables testing such densities is challenging, though, and interpretation of those observables suffers from theoretical uncertainities. Structure observables can be generally...Go to contribution page

Dr Juergen Schaffner-Bielich (Institut fuer Theoretische Physik, Goethe Universitaet, Frankfurt)24/03/2014, 10:30In the dense interior of compact stars the composition might change considerably. Due to weak equilibrium in neutron star matter particles carrying strangeness can appear changing the overall global properties as well as the transport properties of compact stars. The new pulsar mass limit of two solar masses gives new information on the presence of strange matter in the core of compact...Go to contribution page
