Hadron resonance gas with density-dependent interactions for neutron stars and heavy-ion collisions

We present a density-dependent generalization of the van der Waals hadron resonance gas model (DD-HRG) for describing both the hot hadronic matter created in heavy-ion collisions and the cold, dense matter inside neutron stars. Non-resonant interactions are incorporated through a generalized excluded-volume prescriptio...
