Description

Measurements of nucleus-nucleus collisions at the RIBF facility allows us to place constraints on the density dependence of the symmetry energy and on the pressure from the symmetry energy. When we combine these measurements with existing constraints on the symmetric matter EoS, we have obtained constraints on the Equation of State (EoS) of neutron-rich matter. These constraints are relevant to laboratory experiments and also to neutron star observations. In my talk, I will discuss the present status of these constraints and recent progress towards an improved understanding of the EoS of dense matter.
