A concept of \emph{isospin blocking} in the process of isospin diffusion in heavy-ion collisions is raised. Generally, in the process of isospin diffusion, isospin asymmetry would diffuse from the place with large asymmetry to the place…
We investigate the structure attained by neutron star matter with proton to neutron ratios ranging from x=0.1 to 0.5, densities in the range of 0.02 fm-3 to 0.085 fm-3, and temperatures T<4 MeV. In particular we study the pasta shapes and…
We study here the equation of state of symmetric nuclear matter at finite temperatures using a modified SU(2) Chiral Sigma model. The effect of temperature on effective mass, pressure, entropy and binding energy is discussed. The liquid-gas…
The nuclear symmetry energy characterizes the variation of the binding energy as the neutron to proton ratio of nuclear systems (e.g. finite nucleus, neutron star etc.) is varied. The densities associated to these nuclear systems vary over…
Using a more reasonable separate density-dependent scenario instead of the total density-dependent scenario for in-medium $nn$, $pp$ and $np$ interactions, we examine effects of differences of in-medium nucleon-nucleon interactions in two…
After reviewing our microscopic approach to nuclear and neutron-rich matter, we focus on how nucleon-nucleon scattering is impacted by the presence of a dense hadronic medium, with special emphasis on the case where neutron and proton…
