Effective Field Theories For Nuclei And Compact-star Matter: Chiral Nuclear Dynamics (Cnd-iii)

Effective field theories have been widely used in nuclear physics. This volume is devoted to exploring the intricate structure of compact-star matter inaccessible directly from QCD. It is principally anchored on hidden symmetries and topology presumed to be encoded in QCD. It differs from standard effective field theory and energy density functional approaches in that it exploits renormalization-g...
