A new scheme for testing nuclear matter equations of state (EsoS) at high densities using constraints from neutron star phenomenology and a flow data analysis of heavy-ion collisions is suggested. An acceptable EoS shall not allow the…

We derive a new equation of state (EoS) for neutron stars (NS) from the outer crust to the core based on modern microscopic Brueckner-Hartree-Fock (BHF) calculations using the Argonne $v_{18}$ potential plus three-body forces computed with…
