Nanxi Yao

5/20/25, 4:20 PM

The study of neutron stars and heavy-ion collisions offers complementary access to the properties of strongly interacting matter at extreme densities. In particular, the simultaneous observation of both massive neutron stars and light stars with small radii suggests a sharp rise in the speed of sound in dense nuclear matter, potentially approaching the causal limit at baryon densities of a few...
