Equation of state of dense matter and application to neutron stars
Abstract: I will review the derivation of a microscopic equation of state of nucleonic and hadronic matter based on modern nuclear interactions, in a range of density and temperature of interest for various astrophysical systems like neutron stars, supernova explosions and binary neutron star mergers. I will discuss some open problems about these issues like the formation of hyperons or a possible deconfinement phase transition to quark matter. I will finally explain how future observations may help to understand the behaviour of matter under extreme conditions of density and temperature.
