A number of properties of dense matter can be understood semiquantitatively in terms of simple physical arguments. We begin with the outer parts of neutron stars, and consider the density at which pressure ionization occurs, the density at…
Symmetric nuclear matter is studied within the conserving, self-consistent T-matrix approximation. This approach involves off-shell propagation of nucleons in the ladder diagrams. The binding energy receives contributions from the…

Paralleling a previous paper, we examine single- and many-body states of relativistic electrons in an intense, rotating magnetic dipole field. Single-body orbitals are derived semiclassically and then applied to the many-body case via the…
Neutron stars with the isovector scalar $\delta$-field are studied in the framework of the relativistic mean field ($RMF$) approach in a pure nucleon plus lepton scheme. The $\delta$-field leads to a larger repulsion in dense neutron-rich…
Low-density neutron matter is relevant to the study of neutron-rich nuclei and neutron star crusts. Unpolarized neutron matter has been studied extensively over a number of decades, while experimental guidance has recently started to emerge…
The composition and properties of infinite nuclear matter under extreme conditions of temperature and pressure remain incompletely understood. In this work, we constrain the equation of state (EoS) of nuclear matter - constructed within the…
A Fourier-Bessel analysis is used to fit charge and magnetization densities to data for the nucleon Sachs form factors. The neutron and proton magnetization densities are very similar, but the proton charge density is significantly softer.…
