We model the density dependence of the Gruneisen parameter as gamma(rho) = 1/2 + gamma_1/rho^{1/3} + gamma_2/rho^{q}, where gamma_1, gamma_2, and q>1 are constants. This form is based on the assumption that gamma is an analytic function of…
Based on the Skyrme-Hartree-Fock model (SHF) as well as its extension (the Korea-IBS-Daegu-SKKU (KIDS) model) and the relativistic mean-field (RMF) model, we have studied the constraints on the parameters of the nuclear matter equation of…
