Transport models are the main method to obtain physics information on the nuclear equation
of state and in-medium properties of particles from low to relativistic-energy heavy-ion …

We investigate how current and proposed observations of neutron stars can lead to an
understanding of the state of their interiors and the key unknowns: the typical neutron star …

The ultimate goal of studying isospin physics via heavy-ion reactions with neutron-rich,
stable and/or radioactive nuclei is to explore the isospin dependence of in-medium nuclear …

The symmetry energy contribution to the nuclear equation of state impacts various
phenomena in nuclear astrophysics, nuclear structure, and nuclear reactions. Its …

The roles of isospin asymmetry in nuclei and neutron stars are investigated using a range of
potential and field-theoretical models of nucleonic matter. The parameters of these models …

We review the new possibilities offered by the reaction dynamics of asymmetric heavy-ion
collisions, using stable and unstable beams. We show that it represents a rather unique tool …

The nuclear symmetry energy characterizes the variation of the binding energy as the
neutron to proton ratio of a nuclear system is varied. This is one of the most important …

With an isospin-and momentum-dependent transport model, we find that the degree of
isospin diffusion in heavy-ion collisions at intermediate energies is affected by both the …

Using symmetric S n 112+ S n 112, S n 124+ S n 124 collisions as references, we probe
isospin diffusion in peripheral asymmetric S n 112+ S n 124, S n 124+ S n 112 systems at an …

Spinodal multifragmentation in nuclear physics is reviewed. Considering first spinodal
instability within the general framework of thermodynamics, we discuss the intimate …
