New equations of state in simulations of core-collapse supernovae
TL;DR: In this paper, three new equations of state (EOS) in core-collapse supernova simulations are discussed, based on the nuclear statistical equilibrium model of Hempel and Schaffner-Bielich (HS), which includes excluded volume effects and relativistic mean-field (RMF) interactions.

A way forward in the study of the symmetry energy: experiment, theory, and observation
Charles Horowitz,Edward F. Brown,Y. Kim,W. G. Lynch,R. Michaels,Akira Ono,Jorge Piekarewicz,M. B. Tsang,H. H. Wolter +8 more
TL;DR: The symmetry energy describes how the energy of nuclear matter rises as one goes away from equal numbers of neutrons and protons as mentioned in this paper, which is very important to describe neutron rich matter in astrophysics.
