Constraints on Nuclear Symmetry Energy Parameters
A review is made of constraints on the nuclear symmetry energy parameters arising from nuclear binding energy measurements, theoretical chiral effective field predictions of neutron matter properties, the unitary gas […]

Constraints on the Nuclear Symmetry Energy from Experiments, Theory and Observations
Nuclear mass measurements and neutron matter theory tightly constrain the nuclear symmetry energy parameters J, L, Ksym and Qsym. Corroboration of these constraints on J and L can be found […]

Dynamical ejecta from binary neutron star mergers: Impact of a small residual eccentricity and of the equation of state implementation
Predicting the properties of the matter ejected during and after a neutron star merger is crucial to our ability to use electromagnetic observations of these mergers to constrain the masses […]

Magnetically Driven Neutron-rich Ejecta Unleashed: Global 3D Neutrino–General Relativistic Magnetohydrodynamic Simulations of Collapsars Probe the Conditions for r-process Nucleosynthesis
Collapsars—rapidly rotating stellar cores that form black holes—can power gamma-ray bursts and are proposed to be key contributors to the production of heavy elements in the Universe via the rapid […]

Binary neutron star mergers using a discontinuous Galerkin-finite difference hybrid method
We present a discontinuous Galerkin-finite difference hybrid scheme that allows high-order shock capturing with the discontinuous Galerkin method for general relativistic magnetohydrodynamics in dynamical spacetimes. We present several optimizations and […]
