Exploring the Universe through Strong Interactions
The ERC project EUSTRONG will enable major breakthroughs in understanding strong interactions in nuclei and neutron stars, and where strong interactions are essential in dark matter direct detection and neutrino physics. Recently, great progress has been made in constraining the nuclear equation of state from nuclear physics combined with neutron star observations and the neutron star merger GW170817. At the same time, ab initio calculations of nuclei using chiral effective field theory (EFT) interactions have reached nuclei with up to 100 nucleons. These successes are based in parts on developments in my past ERC Starting Grant. Taking these to the next level, we will explore the equation…
