It is shown that in N \simeq Z nuclei the effects of isovector pairing and the symmetry energy are intimately related. In particular, in the odd-odd N = Z nuclei these two effect are essentially equal in magnitude, causing near degeneracy…

One of the major uncertainties in the dense matter equation of state has been the nuclear symmetry energy. The density dependence of the symmetry energy is important in nuclear astrophysics, as it controls the neutronization of matter in…
