Heavy-ion collisions offer a unique way to study hyperon-nucleon ($Y$-$N$) interactions through two-particle momentum correlations, which reveal the source's space-time structure and the effects of the final state interactions. Correlations…

We discuss the formation of $\Delta$ isobars in neutron star matter. We show that their threshold density strictly correlates with the density derivative of the symmetry energy of nuclear matter, the $L$ parameter. By restricting $L$ to the…
