Network in Neutrinos, Nuclear Astrophysics, and Symmetries (N3AS) Seminar

Toward understanding supranuclear-density matter with gravitational waves

Date: Tuesday, May 6th

Time: 2:00 pm

Place: Join Zoom Meeting: Meeting ID: 965 9696 7335

Speaker: Koutarou Kyutoku , Chiba University

Abstract: Properties of supranuclear-density matter governed by quantum chromodynamics (QCD) are yet to be understood. One of the most important problems is how hadronic matter transitions to quark matter as the density increases. Neutron stars serve as a natural laboratory to solve these problems, and gravitational waves emitted by binary neutron stars are among the promising tools. In particular, post merger gravitational waves will tell us about the densest matter in the universe. In this talk, after briefly reviewing current constraints on the equation of state, I will discuss future prospects for understanding QCD phase structure mainly based on our numerical-relativity simulations.
