The equation of state (EoS) of dense matter is of crucial importance for the description of the static and dynamical properties of neutron stars. In this talk I will review the current status of the hadronic EoS for neutron stars, from the point of both ab-initio many-body approaches and phenomenological models. The theoretical predictions for the hadronic EoS will be then compared to the data coming from both nuclear physics experiments and astrophysical observations, providing insights for future investigations.
Dr. Laura Tolos has a degree in Physics (1998) and a PhD Cum Laude in Physics (2003) from the University of Barcelona (Spain).
Her postdoctoral experience started as a Humboldt Fellow at the Goethe-University Frankfurt am Main (2003-2005) and continue as Postdoctoral Fellow at the GSI in Germany (2005-2006). Then she was a Junior Fellow at the Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies of the Goethe-University Frankfurt am Main (2006-2008).
After five years, she obtained a Tenure-Track Assistant Professorship at the University of Groningen from 2008 to 2010 as Rosalind Franklin Fellow, and then a position as Ramon y Cajal Researcher at the Institute of Space Sciences (CSIC) from 2010 to 2017. She later joined the Goethe-University Frankfurt am Main as a Heisenberg Fellow from 2017 to 2020.
From 2020 she is a Senior Researcher at the Institute of Space Sciences (CSIC).
Also, from 2021 to 2022 she was a part-time Associate Professor at the University of Stavanger (Norway), and since 2012 she is Adjunct Fellow of the Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies of the Goethe-University Frankfurt am Maim.
