Abstract :
The nuclear symmetry energy Esym(ρ) is the most uncertain part of the Equation of State (EOS) of dense neutron-rich nuclear matter. In this talk, we discuss the underlying physics responsible for the uncertain Esym(ρ) especially at supra-saturation densities, the circumstantial evidence for a super-soft Esym(ρ) from analyzing π−/π+ ratio in relativistic heavy-ion collisions and its impacts on astrophysics and cosmology.
