Symmetry coefficients and incompressibility of clusterized supernova matter

Abstract

The symmetry energy coefficients, incompressibility, and single-particle and isovector potentials of clusterized dilute nuclear matter are calculated at different temperatures employing the SS-matrix approach to the evaluation of the equation of state. Calculations have been extended to understand the aforesaid properties of homogeneous and clusterized supernova matter in the subnuclear density region. Comparison of the results in the SS-matrix and mean-field approach reveals some subtle differences in the density and temperature region we explore.
