We review the current status and recent progress of microscopic many-body approaches
and phenomenological models, which are employed to construct the equation of state of …

A review is given of various theoretical approaches for the equation of state (EoS) of dense
matter, relevant for the description of core-collapse supernovae, compact stars, and compact …

We report a precision measurement of the parity-violating asymmetry A PV in the elastic
scattering of longitudinally polarized electrons from Pb 208. We measure A PV= 550±16 …

Heavy atomic nuclei have an excess of neutrons over protons, which leads to the formation
of a neutron skin whose thickness is sensitive to details of the nuclear force. This links …

Metamodeling for the nucleonic equation of state (EOS), inspired from a Taylor expansion
around the saturation density of symmetric nuclear matter, is proposed and parameterized in …

A new critical survey is presented of all half-life, decay-energy, and branching-ratio
measurements related to 20 superallowed 0+→ 0+ β decays. Included are 222 individual …

This paper presents a detailed assessment of the ability of the 240 Skyrme interaction
parameter sets in the literature to satisfy a series of criteria derived from macroscopic …

We report the first measurement of the parity-violating asymmetry A PV in the elastic
scattering of polarized electrons from Pb 208. A PV is sensitive to the radius of the neutron …

The authors review the present status of self-consistent mean-field (SCMF) models for
describing nuclear structure and low-energy dynamics. These models are presented as …

In a first paper Skyrme effective forces were revisited in order to improve their isospin
properties away from the β stability line. In this paper, these forces are specifically adjusted …
