11. The properties of nuclear matter using chiral interactions

Domenico Logoteta (PI)

11/27/15, 4:30 PM

We calculate the energy per particle of symmetric nuclear matter and pure neutron matter using the many Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approach and employing the Chiral Next-to-next-to next-to leading order (N3LO) nucleon-nucleon (NN) potential, supplemented with various parametrizations of the Chiral Next-to-next-to lead-ing order (N2LO) three-nucleon force. Such combination is able to reproduce...

12. Quark deconfinement and the duration of short Gamma Ray Bursts

Alessandro Drago (FE)

11/27/15, 5:00 PM

We propose a model for short duration gamma-ray bursts (sGRBs) based on the formation of a quark star after the merger of two neutron stars. We assume that the sGRB central engine is a proto-magnetar, which has been previously invoked to explain the plateau-like X-ray emission observed following both long and short GRBs. Here, we show that: i) a few milliseconds after the merger it is possible...
