The phase diagram of dense QCD

TL;DR: The current status of theoretical studies on the quantum chromodynamics (QCD) phase diagram at finite temperature and baryon chemical potential is reviewed with special emphasis on the origin of various phases and their symmetry breaking patterns as mentioned in this paper.

Pairing in Nuclear Systems: From Neutron Stars to Finite Nuclei

TL;DR: In this article, the links between many-body pairing as it evolves from the underlying nucleon-nucleon interaction and the eventual experimental and theoretical manifestations of superfluidity in infinite nuclear matter and of pairing in finite nuclei are discussed.

White Dwarfs and Neutron Stars

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the famous Chandrasekhar equation is just the relativistic Thomas-Fermi equation for white dwarfs, and that for neutron stars the Thomas-fermi approximation is ideally justified, since the density in the central regions of neutron stars can be almost an order of magnitude higher than the nuclear density.

Coupled-cluster computations of atomic nuclei

TL;DR: The technical and conceptual developments of this method in nuclear physics, and the results of coupled-cluster calculations for nucleonic matter, and for exotic isotopes of helium, oxygen, calcium, and some of their neighbors are reviewed.

The Skyrme interaction in finite nuclei and nuclear matter

TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive survey of the performance of one of the most successful non-relativistic self-consistent method, the Skyrme-Hartree-Fock model (SHF), with respect to these constraints is presented.

Accurate nucleon-nucleon potential with charge-independence breaking

TL;DR: The authors present a new high-quality nucleon-nucleon potential with explicit charge dependence and charge asymmetry, which they designate Argonne {upsilon}{sub 18}.

Equation of state of nucleon matter and neutron star structure

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the properties of dense nucleon matter and the structure of neutron stars using variational chain summation methods and the new Argonne two-nucleon interaction, which provides an excellent fit to all of the nucleon-Nucleon scattering data in the Nijmegen database.

Local phenomenological nucleon-nucleon potentials

TL;DR: Hard (infinitely hard) and soft (Yukawa) core potentials have been fit to Yale and Livermore phase parameters and low-energy data as discussed by the authors, and it is found that neither the short-range behavior of the potentials nor the central-to-tensor ratio in the 3 S 1 - 3 D 1 state is well determined by the data.
