Relativistic Equation of State of Nuclear Matter for Supernova Explosion
About
We construct the equation of state (EOS) of nuclear matter at finite temperature and density with various proton fractions within the relativistic mean field (RMF) theory for the use in the supernova simulations. The Thomas-Fermi approximation is adopted to describe the non-uniform matter where we consider nucleus, alpha-particle, proton and neutron in equilibrium. We treat the uniform matter and non-uniform matter consistently using the RMF theory. We tabulate the outcome as the pressure, free energy, entropy etc, with enough mesh points in wide ranges of the temperature, proton fraction, and baryon mass density.
