Properties of hot and dense matter play a key role in the explosion dynamics of core-collapse supernovae. The equation of state (EOS) affects the energetics of core-bounce and the following revival of shock wave for explosions. The EOS determines the final fate of compact objects together with emergent signals of neutrinos. Therefore, systematic sets of data for supernova EOS are essential...
